Do you want to continue your education, play football and study sport at the same time? If you are currently in year 11-14 or aged 15-20 and wondering what your future holds....G3A have unique opportunities that allow you to play, train and compete like a professional footballer.
We work with professional and semi-professional football clubs to offer young players an opportunity to develop their game and continue their full-time education through our professional and comprehensive scholarship & education programme. We combine preparation for a career in sport with academic courses appropriate to their needs and aspirations in a sporting environment. The programmes are unique to get players not only engaged into sport but with their learning as well. On the course you can either get a BTEC Sport qualification for year 11/12 students or for the year 13/14 students can enrol onto a UNI specification style course.
As we know a lot of children play football between the ages of 6-16 and then either fall out of the game due to there being no grassroots clubs that can offer a scholarship scheme and therefore they go to college and take up other ventures putting football behind them.

As we know a lot of children play football between the ages of 6-16 and then either fall out of the game due to there being no grassroots clubs that can offer a scholarship scheme and therefore they go to college and take up other ventures putting football behind them. This is where we come in. We are offering a first class footballing programme alongside a fantastic education programme for children aged between 15-18. During this time there will be work experience provided such as coaching in schools/academies etc.
Once they have finished their 2 year programme we can then put them forward to local non-league football clubs to continue their development as a young footballer. Failing this there is opportunities to pursue a career over in the USA on a football scholarship where they will receive a first class education/degree whilst continuing their football.
There is also a massive opportunity to be scouted by one of the many professional academies we have links with however this is down to the hard work, dedication and development of the child whilst with us.

Our main aim is to bridge the gap between U16 to first team football and not let all those years of football go to waste. Continue to help with the development of the young footballers as well as giving them an education that they can use for a job/future outside of football.

The new Ilkeston Town Scholarship have endless avenues to pursue on this course with our association with non league clubs and professional academies to be pushed on towards once the 2 year course is complete to aim at semi-professional or professional football that all young athletes dream of. Training on this course will have you feeling that you are a professional footballer with access to high quality coaching and state of the art training facilities.
Failing these ventures the adventure can continue as we provide a link to a career on a USA Scholarship where first class education/degrees can be done whilst the continuation with football.
The university course offered is in association with UCS is completed over 3 years with 3 different specifications in each year for people aged 16-19 wanting to learn the industry of the sport and pursue the practical elements that are paired within this qualification. For this course there are 3 elements, 1 for each year with Year 1 being a Level 4 Higher National Certificate, Year 2 Level 5 Higher National Diploma and Year 3 BSC Hons. All information can be viewed in the UCS Qualification PDF document in the section below.
Do you want to be more hands on in this scholarship course? Well we can offer the work experience to find the jump into sports coaching and refereeing at grassroots level to go from being a manager of a young team to apply plus develop skills in a different nature, or go down a refereeing route to become an official for games in our grassroots academy or further.
Our aim in this new course is to provide multiple avenues for young aspiring footballers who not only want to continue playing full-time football but are looking into multiple careers around the sport to. On your journey with us we can continue with the development of youth footballers but keep the job/future outside of football well and truly in their thoughts and in their path.
