Performance Football—Wellbeing and Protection
Our Performance School pupils recently had the opportunity to speak to the Scottish FA’s wellbeing and protection team about their experience of the programme. This was the first of four participation sessions that Braidhurst has organised to ensure that our pupils’ voices are heard.
SCHOOL OF FOOTBALL TRIALS
On Friday 7th May the school hosted its annual NLC School of Football trials as we began the process of selecting pupils who will be part of the programme from August 2021. Thankfully the weather was on our side as hopeful participants showcased their footballing skills on the school’s football pitch. Braidhurst hopes that everyone enjoyed the process and it was great to meet you in person. Good luck to all of our budding football stars.
SCOTTISH FA PERFORMANCE SCHOOL GRADUATION
Congratulations to our pupils who attended the Scottish FA Performance School Graduation ceremony at Hampden Park on Saturday 8th June. The Braidhurst performance school pupils were each invited onstage and awarded a certificate which recognised their achievement at completing the programme after four years at school. After the graduation ceremony the boys were interviewed on the Hampden pitch in front of a huge crowd of thousands of football fans who were there to watch the Scotland –v- Cyprus international qualifier. The pupils then took their own seat to watch the match. Well done to all our pupils on a fantastic four years.
