Plenty of interest in trials for the new DFC academy

We've received plenty of enquiries about the trials for our new Academy, which will be based at Blackwell Meadows from September,

The vast majority of those who attended our previous trials, plus quite a few more newcomers, will be coming along on Tuesday 29th May beginning at 5.30pm. It's still not too late to register!

Registration in the day will be followed by a trial game on the main pitch, and information on the BTEC course will be handed out to parents and prospective students.

If you intend coming along to the trials or are interested in what we’ve got to offer, then please complete the application form here.

Here's Darlington manager Tommy Wright talking about the Academy

Players should provide their own training kit, shin pads, boots and water bottles.

We’ve already had one trials day, which was a great success, with more than 20 people attending and playing in a game on the main pitch under the watchful eye of first team manager Tommy Wright and assistant manager Alan White.
