Paris Saint-Germain Academy
Anglo joined the Paris Saint-Germain Academy in September 2023.
The programme offers a 1hr 30min coaching session once a week to Year 7 cohort throughout the entire academic year. The academy was inundated with requests to join and eventually had to set a cap at 80 students which included 30 girls and 50 boys.
This current cohort will continue in the PSG academy in Year 8 and will be open to our new Year 7 in September. There are further plans to develop the academy at the school and incorporate the Sixth Form into the academy for those who want to continue to develop their football skills post 16 - so watch this space!
What is the PSG Academy?
The PSG Academy works within selected schools across the UK to deliver the Player Development Programme offering children and teenagers the chance to play the Paris Saint - Germain way!
The Player Development Programme (PDP) has been created to give all players aged 8-16 the opportunity to develop their game both physically and mentally.
The PDP programme is open to all abilities from beginner to elite levels and is available for both boys and girls.
The students wear their PSG academy kit and tracksuit on the day of their coaching session. They are coached by highly qualified football coaches who, receive a detailed weekly session plan from the PSG Sporting Director to learn football, the Parisian way!
PSG Coaching at The Anglo
Paris Saint-Germain Academy UK coaches will ensure that each player receives individual mentoring so they are able to progress and master their techniques and at the end of the season they will receive a full report from the Head Coach. This will enable each player to further progress from recommendations made by the coach.
During the sessions the players will work in small groups, being closely monitored by the coaches running drills and learning about the game.
As well as learning the techniques and philosophy of the Parisian club the players will also discuss the importance of nutrition, fitness and conditioning to emphasise the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle on and off the training ground.
PSG Football Camps
The PSG Academy offers students and local children the opportunity to take part in Summer and Easter football camps during the school holidays.
