It’s been a fantastic first six weeks on the pitch at the ESPFA, with students progressing technically, tactically and physically through training three times a week and taking that hard work into producing some exciting football in the games programme.
Here, the coaches from the north programmes have nominated their 'player of the half term' for their quality and attitude on the training pitch and their performances in the league games.
