NI is a hot bed for football talent and LLS has created a post-16 programme which perfectly combines education with professional standard football provision.

By teaming up with clubs from the NIFL Premiership, local High Schools and Skill School NI, LLS is offering 16 – 19-year-olds of all abilities the opportunity to Learn, Train and Compete (full-time, over 2-years).

Since expanding its provision into NI back in 2015, LLS has continued to grow its reputation for being an outstanding education provider who consistently delivers life-changing opportunities for young people.

This latest development has been created for students who have ambitions of securing a career in the football industry, so whether you have dreams of playing professional football, or your ambition is to work as a coach, analyst or even a physiotherapist, this Football Performance Programme will give you everything you need to reach your goals.

Over the course of two academic years, students will study towards the BTEC Level 3 National Extended Diploma in Sports Coaching and Development (2019), but the fun doesn’t stop in the classroom, here’s what else is included:

The pathways upon completion of the programme are incredible with direct options including USA Football Scholarships, University, Coaching Jobs Abroad, Paid Apprenticeships and even 1st Team football.
