About AUTHENTIC AFRICAN SPORT ACADEMY
Authentic African sport academy is a sport school for both boys and girls. It combines education with sport along with a special focus on football development.
Authentic African sport academy is aimed at educating and redirecting young talents in football who ordinarily would have started and ended their football career on the abrasive streets of this country, instead of harnessing and exporting the raw African talents and dexterity to the world, it is allowed to die a natural death. The academy is really designed to help aspiring players to sharpen their football skills, place them in limelight and facilitate their discovery and recruitment into the big clubs to play alongside football stars as their dream. To achieve this, the academy is sub-divided into two vi3
1 ) STUDENT EDUCATION: the academy runs nursery, primary and secondary school education.
2) PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL DEVELOPMENT: this is the program where children between thirteen and eighteen years who have either completed their secondary school education or yet to complete it are nurtured to play professional football.
Joining the academy system is a wonderful opportunity for any young player on behalf of everyone at the authentic African sport academy (AASA) , I wish you good luck as you begin your journey.
You should expect the quality coaching, the standard of education and the all-round experience to be outstanding. We expect all academy players to show commitment to and respect for their fellow players of all ages, for their coaches and their academy management for both the rules and the spirit of the game.
There are many things you will need to know as an academy player or as a parent of a player. This charter is designed to provide you with an introduction to the academy system and information on how it works.
