EDUCATION AT HEMEL
Hemel Hempstead Town FC has four classrooms for young people to learn alongside their football development. Most players will study a two year Level 3 to NCFE Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport and Physical Education starting in year 12. The two year course will give the players the equivalent UCAS points as 3 x A Levels.
The college style programme at Hemel is also designed to fit the players needs, some players complete a level 2, some players retake their GCSE’s in Maths and English, some players complete coaching qualifications and also gain work experience working in the football industry.
Players who enrol can study at Hemel from 16 to 19 years of age, whilst the aim of many of the players is to step up their football development and work towards a debut for Hemel Hempstead Town FC’s first team, there are also other exit routes with players going off to University, straight into work within football, or gaining a scholarship to study and play in the USA.
Hemel Hempstead Town FC run a full academy scholarship program for boys aged 16 - 19 which allows players to continue playing while undertaking further education at Hemel Hempstead Town FC. You will train and study daily with our UEFA qualified coaches who include former Wales international and current HHTFC first team player George Williams.
Our academy teams play in the National League U19 Alliance, Youth Development and Tactic League as well as representing the club in the FA Youth Cup. Students will study either the NCFE Extended Diploma in Sport and Physical Education, equivalent to 3 A levels, We also have a third year option to remain in the program as an U19 and study a NCFE Level 3 Business Qualification.
