Youth Academy Skills Session

13 August 2014

AFC Youth Academy Players received an extra training session with AFC Advanced Skills coach Jim Crawford.

Selected AFC players were treated to an extra training session on Tuesday the 12th of August from AFC Advanced Skills Coach Jim Crawford.

All young players who have been associated with AFC Youth Academy from 8-12 years of age are familiar with the Advanced Centre skills training.  This is an unique programme which was devised by Jim Crawford to help accelerate the players development and improve technique.

The Youth Academy enrolls many players who have been involved with Jim's 1V1 programme, and the session allowed those that joined the Academy at a later stage in their footballing career to develop these specific skills.

All the players really enjoyed their session with Jim, and are looking forward to demonstrating their skills during the first Club Academy Scotland Fixtures, which kick off this weekend.
