Founded in 2012 by professional coaches Steve Grime and Steve Hart, our Advanced Academy in Leeds quickly established itself as the leading independent football programme in Yorkshire.

 

UFCA are dedicated to nurturing young talent and paving the way for aspiring footballers to reach their potential, which lead to the launch of our new centre in Bradford launch at the start of the 2024-25 season.

​

Our Bradford Advanced Academy offers a comprehensive training schedule, with meticulously planned sessions held twice per week which are designed to refine technical skills, enhance tactical understanding, and build the physical prowess necessary for elite performance.

 

Our commitment to excellence is further demonstrated through a high-level fixture programme where our players compete in an weekly games schedule - as well as strong links to professional clubs allowing us exclusive access to fixtures against professional academies.

​

Player development is at the core of everything we do, with our expert coaching staff dedicated to providing personalised guidance and support, ensuring that each player can maximise their potential.

 

The success of our programme is evident, with a significant number of our players securing contracts with professional football clubs each season.

 

The UFCA Advanced Academy is a launchpad for young athletes to achieve their goals in the world of professional football.
