Cambridge United's Youth Development Department will be holding trials for boys in various age groups for the 2009/10 season. The trials will take place at Development Centres throughout the local area, starting next week - full details below.
We pride ourselves on recruiting the best young footballers in the area to help them with their development from an early age.
If you were offered a place in this scheme, it would involve weekly training sessions, tournaments in school holidays and some matches. Most importantly, it allows you to still play for your Mini League Club. There may also be the opportunity of trials for our Centre of Excellence.
The trials take place at the following venues, on the dates and for the specific age groups shown.
