The Football Academy; The Recipe For Success
Well, besides their prayers, the boys are a hardworking and determined bunch. The footballers at the college come through the Football Academy of St. Joseph’s College. The Academy grooms young footballers from Grade 2 up to Grade 5 giving the youngsters the fundamentals of football. When the boys come to the U-13 Side they play friendly matches to get them the competitive edge. So when the boys make the transition to the school’s league they are primed and ready.
