Exeter Regional Talent Centre

At The Regional Talent Centre we develop players and give them the strength, belief and opportunities to test and push themselves towards achieving their footballing potential.

We develop players and give them the strength, belief and opportunities to test and push themselves towards achieving their footballing potential. We take players that haven’t made the step up to a professional club and we provide the safe, controlled environment where learning and development is primary goal, whilst maintaining that all important link with local football teams. 

Our teams play fixtures against Academies, as well as other Regional Development teams/County set ups, this offers them the space and opportunity to develop and showcase their talent. We currently have 10 competitive squads across the age groups, 5 of which compete in the prestigious Junior Premier League. However, we also cater outside of this, for over 200 children within the local community at our progression sessions, all with FA qualified coaches. This means currently we work with over 350 players from Under 7’s upwards as it’s vital to work at this younger age to maximise their development. We take them through to Under 16’s level and give them all the help and guidance they need to take their next steps on the footballing ladder. Our tailor-made coaching syllabus is created by our UEFA qualified team of coaches. It draws on their many years of accumulated experience working in Centre of Excellences, Academies and County representative sides. The programme includes ball skills, small sided games and futsal to enable better decision making and improved technical ability. It also includes development topics and tactical insight to give Exeter Regional Talent Centre players a better knowledge and understanding of the game which can only improve their physical performance.

By partnering with us you will help us fund kit, equipment and activities to further allow us to develop these aspiring children.

We have had an incredible first year as a Talent Centre, leading us to now be working with Exeter City FC, where we look to push our recruitment and training of players into their academy.
