Four pupils from the Braidhurst football programme recently signed professional forms for Motherwell FC.   The Rector Mr Derrick Hannan said, “This is absolutely fabulous news for the school and the local club.   These boys have progressed through the school and benefitted from their involvement in the daily coaching sessions provided through their involvement in the SFA school of football programme.   They have all been pro youth players with the club and have now been taken on full time contracts.   They are superb young players and I look forward to watching their future development in the coming years.   This has always been their dream and I am delighted that the school has played a part in their development.   It is proof that the programme operating in the school is working.   We wish them well in their chosen careers”.
