Our Vision.

In modern football, it's crucial for top clubs to have a distinct style of play. Through Danny Purves, DP Football Academy’s connection with Manchester City has brought the club's ideology into our academy. As more teams adopt a possession-based, high-pressing game, we coach our players to develop the traits needed to thrive in this modern approach.

Unlock Your Potential.

Our players gain valuable experience competing against Category 1 academies like Manchester City, Stoke City, and West Brom, helping them overcome unique challenges and develop their skills.

Academy Players

Starting as ‘DP Football School’ with just 8 players, we became ‘DP Football Academy’ in 2022 and now have over 180 players. Could you be next?
