“Glenthorne High School Sixth Form prides itself on its academic achievements and believes that through this partnership gifted footballers will be able to combine their talents on the field with a first-rate academic experience in the classroom to lead them into the future.” Ms J Stuart, Associate Head teacher, Glenthorne High School

The result? You leave your two-year programme professionally trained in the sport of your dreams - and with up to three good A levels (or equivalents) under your belt. That equates to a broad range of aspirational options open to you including: footballer, coach, a place at a good university and the opportunity to become a P.E teacher, physiotherapist, sports nutritionist and many other opportunities in sports marketing, leisure and recreation management.

Mark Cornish Marketing Manager, Cobham FC explains, “The sports industry (according to PWC’s Outlook on Sport), shows that global sports industry revenues exceed £100 billion a year. The variety and potential to make a career in the business of sport has never been greater. We hope Cobham FC can play our part in helping these young men fulfil their potential on and off the pitch”.
