Plan B for Academy Players – Get Educated

Always have a Plan B, that makes sense in any venture or undertaking. For young footballers it’s a must, after all only 1% of academy players make it and that’s not good odds in anyone’s books. It’s an issue that’s increasingly being recognised and was highlighted recently on talkSPORT and has been previously reported on in the Guardian.

One of the best ways to ensure you have options, surely must be in having qualifications to fall back on. A set of IGCSEs/A levels is as important as any sporting skills. Not being in control is often a cause of mental health stress, an education can give a measure of control. The challenge of course is in balancing the demands of training and schooling. Increasingly on-line learning is being seen as a way to help, certainly we’re seeing more sporty students taking up courses at InterHigh https://interhigh.co.uk/about-interhigh/
