We are really pleased to announce that the Junior Blades are looking to get a Girls Academy up and running for the 2020/21 season.

We are still finalising the details but we have training slots booked in and we are working hard behind the scenes to get the girls section up and running as soon as possible.

The aim is to create an Academy for 10-14 year olds that offers two training sessions per week. One session will be on Wednesday nights 7-8pm at St Georges Graves, Norton, Sheffield and the second session will be on a Saturday (time and venue tbc).

These Girl sessions will be open to all 10-14 year olds, even if you are registered with other clubs. We are looking at offering top quality coaching to develop the ladies game and the individual players rather than having our own team playing in the league.

We are currently in discussions with Sheffield United Ladies to work with their setup to offer the Girls a clear pathway from grassroots football into the professional game.

The exact details etc are still be confirmed. COVID 19 has caused numerous delays but as restrictions start to be lifted we are expecting things to move very quickly going forward.

If you are at all interested please email info@juniorblades.co.uk and our coaching team will add you to the mailing list and send you information as and when we have it.
