Pro11 Trials Avis 172

Hadn't heard of Pro11 a little over a week ago, and was recommended to an upcoming open trials day near to where I live, by a goalkeeper coach my son has trained with.

I had troubles trying to book onto the day, the day before, as I was abroad and payment wouldn't accept. when I got back to the UK I contacted their whatsapp number and within a few hours got a very helpful response, where they made every effort to book us onto the day by sending a new electronic registration form and payment link. Within a few minutes my son was booked on and an e-ticket sent.
The Pro11 customer service was both warm and very helpful.

On arrival we were met by the friendly Pro11 staff, and my son was allocated a number and given some initial instructions.

The communications throughout the day were really clear, the event was very well organised but they also displayed a lot compassion/consideration towards the hopes and aspirations of all the attendees in the way they communicated which was really nice to see.

Regardless of whether it leads to some future academy destination or not, as part of the journey, it was a great experience, lead by good people and I would thoroughly recommend Pro11 to all aspiring kids and their parents.

Thanks for all your help and attention :)

Staff were helpful & friendly
Clear directions

Our experience with Pro11 has been exceptional. The event was very well organised, the coaches were professional, and the atmosphere was supportive from start to finish. My son felt confident and motivated throughout the sessions.

What truly sets Pro11 apart is the genuine opportunity for players to be seen by top‑level scouts. During the trials, my son was approached by scouts from Chelsea FC, Arsenal FC, Crystal Palace FC, and West Ham United. This was an incredible moment for him and a testament to the quality of exposure Pro11 provides.

As a result of these opportunities, he received invitations to block training sessions with West Ham United and Chelsea FC, which was a huge achievement for him.
He is now continuing with an 8‑week academy trial at West Ham United, a milestone we are extremely proud of.
I’m very grateful for the platform Pro11 offers. If you’re looking for a professional, well‑run trial that genuinely leads to real opportunities, I highly recommend Pro11.

My son recently attended a football trial with Pro 11 and we couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. The session was very well organised, professional, and created a positive environment for all the players.

The coaches were supportive and encouraging, allowing the players to express themselves and play with confidence. Most importantly, my son really enjoyed it and came away feeling motivated.

We’re incredibly proud that he has been recognised and offered a further trial in the Academy. A fantastic opportunity and a great pathway for young players.

Highly recommend Pro 11 to any young footballers looking to develop and showcase their talent!

My son attended a trial with Pro 11 at Barnsley in February. After the trial there were 7 clubs in total who shown interest in him. The clubs sent scouts out to his grassroots games and he was invited to train with 3 clubs in the last month. A championship club have now offered him an 8 week trial with their academy. I was sceptical about sending him to trials like this thinking it would be a waste of money. In truth pro 11 have opened doors for my son in football that wouldn't have happened naturally. If you're child is a talented footballer I highly recommend pro 11. The clubs that have been in touch with me have also informed me that the pro 11 team are really good at chasing them up, on the progress of their interest from the trial. Massive thank you to the team for what you've done so far for my son 👍

Thank you Nicola and Coach Stewart my son enjoyed the game at the ID football trial. There were scouts from Cat 1 and Cat 2 football clubs. The event was very well organised and feedback from professional coach was provided straight after the trial and post trial he was invited to attend a talent ID to play football and study at college in the U.S.A.

Great set up with some good feedback

Numerous scouts and good communication before and after the event

Really good experience. They had various scouts and on the day kept good communication. They were also honest and transparent about the opportunities.

We truly enjoyed the professionalism and total caare and attention and organisation that PRO 11 put into it from start to the end and made our son's journey memorable throughout the trial experiance.
Thank you to all PRO 11 team members.
Please keep up the excellent work you all have provided for our children.

Excellent experience at the Pro11 Trials on 20/02/2026

My son attended the trials last week and he thoroughly enjoyed it.

It was really well run from the moment we arrived, with a very polite/professional team who were happy to deal with any questions/queries. The U10s coach that my son was with was really encouraging, approachable and made it all fun.

There was the opportunity to gain feedback from the coach at the end on how to continue improving which was really useful and Leyton Orient FC expressed interest in my son there and then, which we were informed of by the Pro11 team at the end of the day.

Two days later we received communication from the Pro11 team as promised, confirming the interest by Leyton Orient, but also that Chelsea FC had expressed interest as well. The information provided of next steps was really clear and the option to contact the team if needed.

Overall we would really recommend attending a Pro11 trial!

I booked both my sons onto sessions in Barnsley with Pro 11 and I have to say I’ve been very impressed. I was personally unsure at first and worried we might just be getting sold a dream, but after attending, I couldn’t fault it.

The facilities were great, the coaching was strong, and the drills were well organised and professional. Scouts from clubs were there as promised, which was reassuring. The follow-up after the trial has also been excellent.

Overall, it’s been well worth the money and a fantastic experience for both of my young sons. Highly recommend!

Awesome team. Great set up. Communication especially from Nicola. Can’t recommend the team enough.

Visited Sunday 14-12/25 with my son George. It was very well organised from start to finish. The staff are very friendly and Chris made us feel welcomed and explained how the registration process would work from the beginning of the session. The training drills were slick and very well organised and the 5 a side in the last quarter of the session was brilliant. Well done Pro 11 we will definitely be visiting again. Thankyou.
Big thankyou to Stu aswell who took George’s training session.Stu was brilliant with the kids and gave very clear consice instructions during the trials. Thankyou so much Stu for the very encouraging feedback to George when you said you where surprised George hadn’t been selected by the first few clubs who gave in there results. You said you would’ve selected George and that had given George so much confidence going forward. We still have the other big clubs to give there selection results in so fingers crossed.

My son attended the Leeds trial in June 2025 through Pro11, and thoroughly enjoyed the event. As a result of that trial, he was scouted by Hull City, Rotherham United, and Sheffield Wednesday, and was also referred on to another club.

Over the summer holidays, my son was invited to attend sessions with both Hull City and Sheffield Wednesday and was incredibly fortunate to be offered a full trial with both clubs. We were so grateful for these amazing opportunities. After careful consideration, we accepted the trial with Sheffield Wednesday and pleased to say he was offered a contract.

I can’t thank Pro11 enough for providing a platform and opening doors that have made a real difference to my son’s development and future.

Gives you an opportunity to showcase young promising footballers skills in front of local academy scouts which will give them the opportunity to play at a higher level with more in depth coaching.

Geralt attended the session a bit nervous knowing that in his group there would have been older kids (he being U8), but this did not last long thanks to the coach guide and training. Really engaging and clear from the beginning to all parents too! Coaches and scouts are considering the age of the player and make fair assessments in my opinion.

Geralt had interest from 2 clubs like Nottingham Forest and Derby County that will now come to watch him on grassroots.

Geralt is exited now and training hard to succeed and thanks to Pro11 Trials for this experience.

My son attended the under 14s session on the 15th Nov at Derby Racecourse, welcomed and introduced by the lady on the tent, explaining everything to expect and how the day would run.

After a brief induction my son went to the pitch for the under 14s welcomed by the coaching staff putting on the session, made to feel at ease, have fun and get the most out of the high standard of coaching on offer. Through the drills and small matches my son was pushed, encouraged and praised for trying things expressing himself, as well as explaining what and why things are done and the possible positives it creates in game scenarios.

After the session they had a brief talk about the session and cool down as a group. The Pro 11 staff, coaches were top draw and every detail was on time and well managed.

At the end the lads were encouraged about their footballing journeys and that regardless of the outcome of the session to keep enjoying their football and development. My son received 2x Cat 1 club interests and came away from the day, motivated, excited, driven and encouraged with his experience with the training session. Thank you all those involved at Pro 11. Highly recommend the training and experience.

Open, honest communication with us before the day was essential to give us confidence that the event would be the right one for our son. The session was extremely well run and the goal keeper coach was very careful to provide helpful feedback. He was encouraging and supportive. Overall it was an excellent experience. Highly recommended.

My son really enjoyed his first time with pro11, the coaches was really friendly and engaging with the kids. Plenty of scouts on show to get their little faces lit up.

My son left with multiple scouts taking interest in him with already attending a session the following day.

Get involved and give your child the opportunity.

Thank you pro11.
