Yeovil Town Football Club are proud to announce the continued development of our full-time Under-19 Scholarship Programme at Huish Park for the 2025/26 season. Open to current Year 11 students, this full-time programme offers a pathway to combine elite football training with academic achievement in a professional environment.
Train like a pro, study like a scholar
Based full-time at the home of Yeovil Town FC, scholars will be with us Monday to Friday, receiving top-level coaching while studying for a BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sport. This is a chance to be part of a club that values both personal growth and player development.
Elite football programme
Our UEFA-licensed coaching team – who led last season’s squad to a league title – will deliver a comprehensive training schedule, including:
– Structured pre-season programme to prepare players physically and mentally
– Matches arranged against EFL academies and other high-level opposition
– A professional club environment, with access to first-team staff, facilities, and a clear development pathway
We are currently awaiting confirmation of entry into the National League Alliance U19 Division, a highly regarded and competitive platform for developing young talent.
A proven pathway to the first team
This season alone:
– 3 U19 players awarded first-team squad numbers
– 1 player signed by a Category 1 academy
– 18 U19 players have trained with the first team
Education that matches your ambition
Delivered on-site by full-time academic staff, the education programme is tailored to support each scholar alongside their football commitments. This nationally recognised qualification offers progression into university, scholarships, or careers in the sports industry.
