Elite Boys’ Football Programme

ELITE FOOTBALL PROGRAMME

The Henley College’s Elite Football Programme, in partnership with Wycombe Wanderers Sport & Education Trust (SET), offers talented footballers aged 16-19 the opportunity to study and play top level football, alongside their academic studies.

This is an excellent opportunity for young footballers to earn USA Soccer Scholarships or progress into non-league football in the UK. Students will follow a full-time football programme alongside studying A Levels or a Level 3 vocational course programme. The College offers a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Sports and Exercise Science, or Sport, Fitness and Personal Training - for those looking for a future in sports. Elite Football is an intensive programme with training through the week with fixtures on a Wednesday afternoon. As well as having the opportunity to learn, develop and improve on the pitch, players follow a Strength and Conditioning programme, and receive nutrition and lifestyle advice.

Tom Guy

Football Head Coach

“I’m delighted to be working for the College on our Elite Football Programme, in partnership with Wycombe Wanderers SET and alongside our other local football club partners such as Henley Town FC and Wallingford FC. We have formed what we believe will be a long term, realistic and successful programme. This is a fantastic opportunity for student footballers at Henley to benefit from opportunities such as representing Wycombe Wanderers SET in the NYFL, FA Youth Cup participation, analysis at the stadium and fixtures on the Adams Park pitch at the end of the season, to name a few!”
