We are thrilled to announce that we have won the contract to complete all the internal decoration for the Southampton FC Training Academy in association with Leadbitter, the main contractors, who won Bronze affiliation in the Considerate Constructors Awards 2013 for the development.
Southampton Football Club Academy or Saints Academy is the youth organisation run by Southampton Football Club to encourage and develop young footballers in the South of England.
Currently Southampton’s academy set up is one of the best in the country, and they have regularly reached the latter stages of the FA Youth Cup, as well as being successful in the FA Premier Academy League championship. The academy has joined up with local college Sparsholt College to try to give those footballers who have missed out on a scholarship the opportunity to remain in the game and train and play matches with the Southampton Academy. In May 2013, Andre Villas-Boas, manager of Tottenham Hotspur praised the Southampton Academy for its ability to produce star players, describing it as “a great school of development” and comparing it Sporting Lisbon.
We are extremely proud to be associated with this project.
