NEXT year’s school leavers are invited to attend an opening tomorrow night at Darlington College for the Martin Gray Football Academy.
The courses available are a Diploma in Sports Level 2 (with football and women’s football), and an Extended Diploma in Sports Level 3 (with football, women’s football and rugby).
The MGFA coaches come from a football background with many being ex-professional Premier League footballers themselves, while until recently Gray was Darlington’s manager five years.
He is now in charge at York City and has a wealth of experience in coaching, managing and playing football and holds the highest accreditation of coaching; the UEFA Pro Licence.
- The event runs from 5.30pm to 7pm on Wednesday, October 18.
