Three mistakes players make trial day!

1. You don’t release the ball early enough- in the pre-academy phase this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, however, as you get older scouts look at decision-making more closely and your decisions will impact your team!
2. Not playing their natural game- it’s normal to be nervous at a trial! But try and play your natural game, at potential pro, we create a fun environment that helps prevent nerves. Don’t shy away from attempting that pass or shot! We love the creativity.
3. Work hard off the ball!

What you do off the ball is just as important as what you do on the ball, make sure you put equal effort into recovery runs, pressing and covering for team mates.
