Re: Junior academies
Thanks for all the replies, I had a look at Drago with my Son, seems like a good balance of coaching/education and I also like the idea that his family is involved in the coaching as well, does go on for quite a while but my son really enjoyed it, so thanks for those who put him forward.

Re: Junior academies
To me an academy is for the gifted not just anyone who wants to pay for extra coaching.
The word academy is too loosely used these days.
I am not knocking all the ones mentioned, as I am sure they provide good extra coaching, but I don't agree with the naming of them.

Re: Junior academies
I would say football school or football coaching.
A child could goto John Dedes football school. Nothing wrong with that. but John Dedes football academy makes it sound better and more exclusive and for elite players.
