Leon moves from White Hart Lane to Craven Cottage!

Congratulations to Leon "Simba" Jordan, who has recently been scouted by Fulham Football Club and now trains with the U6 Youth Development side at the club!

His elder brother Noel "Babu" Francis is currently eying a big move; details to follow - watch this space!

Nice one boys!!

ESA Website...

There is an urgent need for the academy to have a website, as the benefits far outweigh the current blog setup.

Donations, pledges and contributions are urgently required, if we are to promote the academy effectively and realise our dream of providing the youth with a chance.

We must remember out motto of "Learn, Perform and Excel!"

Puma 2000 Youth Soccer Tournament

Southgate Adelaide U14/15 are looking forward to participating in this coming Saturday's Puma2000 youth soccer tournament in Chelmsford, London.

All the best to the boys!

Southgate Adelaide U14/15 Winners Again!

Two weeks ago saw Noel and co lift yet another trophy at the Hemel Hemspted tournament.

The boys are doing well and have dedicated this win to Eastlands Soccer Academy in Nairobi, Kenya. Many thanks for the lovely thought :-D

We need to stand firm in the wake of the global financial crisis....

The credit crunch is adversely affecting our operations; but we have to maintain faith and hope......otherwise the highly committed youth that we support will have no direction!

I have been trying to solicit for funds to enable us to continue offering our services, but it is proving quite difficult and challenging!

Many thanks to Ms Mavies in the pharmacy department at Princess Elizabeth Hospital (PEH) in Guernsey in the British Channel Islands for her donation of clogs which we hope to put on sale and raise funds to further the academy's cause. Thank you, Mavies and many Blessings!
