Welcome to the Simon Francis Football Academy

The Simon Francis Football Academy aims to offer ‘academy standard’ training for both boys and girls, at any age, for affordable rates. We ensure the right blend of enjoyment and guidance to take them to the next level. We are partnered with Ashdown Leisure Centre, and have access to the South Coast’s premier facilities.

We are privileged to announce an exciting feeder link with AFC Bournemouth Academy. This link gives the players an opportunity to get on the player pathway. We’re delighted to report that two players have already made their way into AFC Bournemouth’s ID Centres. The link equally allows players to come back down from Academy/ID Centres into the Simon Francis Football Academy for further monitoring.
