The unique nature of the new Chelmsford City F.C Academy, allows students to follow their own educational path, whether that be studying for A Levels, taking a vocational course or a combination of the two, All students will be required to meet the school’s rigorous entry requirements in order to gain a place, regardless of their footballing ability.
Working within the local community, the Academy aims to further develop the skills of young footballing talent while also increasing their coaching and knowledge of the game. Simultaneously, the Academy will work with students to ensure their academic achievements match those of their achievements on the pitch.
Training sessions and matches are integrated within the academic timetable and as part of the Chelmsford City F.C. Academy, players join a squad that participates in a programming fixture consisting of other National League Academies and the prestigious F.A. Youth Cup. Academy participants will also have access to training with the First Team and a clear pathway into that team, should they show enough all-round ability.
Mickey Spillane - Academy Manager/1st team Assistant Manager


“The Academy has been a huge success and has exceeded the expectations Chelmsford City Football Club set out to achieve. We support and encourage players development on and off the pitch. Current players have made excellent progress in their academic studies and for the club. Most of the current Yr 13 are applying for top universities including Bath and Loughborough whilst others are being supported to secure degree apprenticeships. Students are gaining top grades and leading by example as demonstrated by the Head boy who is also captain of the Academy Team. Many players have made their 1st team debut, trained with the 1st team and played with the men’s reserves. They have also broken club records in the FA Youth Cup. There is clearly no better place to continue your footballing journey whilst gaining an “outstanding” education. ”
