The academy has also produced the likes of Wolves’ Ben Goodliffe, Ranger’s Lee Hodson, Blackpool’s Kyle Vassell and Luton Town’s Pelly Ruddock, to name just a few. The likes of Bruno Andrade and Grant Smith at Lincoln, Morgan Ferrier at Walsall, Lee Angol at Shrewsbury and Junior Morias at Northampton, also earned moves to the Football League, having impressed for Boreham Wood – amongst numerous other success stories.
The Wood Academy has become a breeding ground for young talent and continues to produce International players, with five earning prestigious call-ups for their country, with England Colleges, this year alone.
This season proved to be another highly successful campaign, with our U19s winning the ‘Champion of Champions’ again to become National Champions of England and Wales, and our U18’s earned themselves a League and Cup double.
The PASE Academy was set up by the Chairman in 2002 and provides 16-to-18-year-olds of all abilities the chance to join the club’s sports education programme.
The facilities at Boreham Wood are first class, with a Premier League standard, million pound Desso surface, a new 5th Generation astro pitch and a state of the art gymnasium.
The work that the players do on the pitch, is then backed up by our Sky Sports style smart boards, which enable our coaches to review matches and go through things tactically with the scholars.
You will be coached by our superb UEFA and FA licensed coaches, which include current first team players. Ricky Shakes, Danny Woodards, David Stephens, Manny Parry, Angelo Balanta, Connor Smith, Femi Ilesanmi, Ryan Huddart, Jamal Fyfield and Tom Champion all coach the PASE Academy players, alongside first team assistant manager Cameron Mawer.
