Working in partnership with Durham Women’s Football Club, the Women’s Football Academy gives young players the opportunity to progress and play at a professional level whist also studying for their futures.

Players in the Academy will get the chance to compete against some of the best young players in the country as they can represent both Bede Sixth Form in the AoC Premiership and represent Durham Women’s FC in both the National Football Youth League and the WSL Academy Super Cup.
Players from the Academy have the flexibility to represent Bede Sixth Form, Durham Women’s FC and any other community club.

Players will train on our FIFA 1 standard, FA registered, flood-lit astro pitch as well as having the opportunity to use our on-site gym and strength and conditioning facilities.
Training three times a week with high-level coaching provided by Durham Women’s FC, players looking to take their game to the next level will have the support they need to achieve their aspirations.
