PROFESSIONAL TECHNICAL COACHING PROGRAMME

Arsenal and England's Gilly Flaherty has joined Concept4Football and will be opening her Girl's Academy at The Priory School, Orpington, Kent. Sessions will be on Friday evenings.

Gilly is in the record books as the first ever goalscorer in the FA WSL with her goal against Chelsea last year.

Concept4Football are delighted to announce the signing of Irish Premier League star Danny Murphy.

Danny started his playing career in England, playing for West Ham Utd and QPR before moving to Cork City FC where he won the Premier League in his first season as well as qualifying for the Champions League qualifying rounds. Danny then had a short spell at Motherwell FC in Scotland until his return to Cork. Danny was then sold to Shamrock Rovers in 2010 where he confirmed his place amongst the top players in the Irish Premier League, Danny won another Premier League title with Shamrock Rovers and played against Juventus in the away leg of their 1 - 0 Champions League defeat in Turin. He also played against Real Madrid in a Pre Season Friendly.

Danny has since returned to his much loved Cork City FC, where he is known as 'The Cockney Rebel' and where he plans to help Concept4Football become the leading technical soccer programme in the Republic of Ireland.

An Elite Under 10 side from our Academies travelled to Reading FC's Training Ground to play their U10 Academy Team coached by Concept4Football's Lewis Goater. We played 4 x 20 mins games and drew the first game 0 - 0, before losing 3 - 0 in the second. In the third quarter, Reading scored a late equaliser to deny the boys a close 1 - 0 win. The day finished with a 1 - 0 loss in the final session. Thanks to Reading FC and Well Done to all the players involved who made a good account of themselves on the day.
