Pro11 Trials Recensioni 

We’ve attended many trials at open age around the UK ,this is by far the best ..The friendly introduction from the coaches especially ,the training sessions before the game ,the interaction from the coaches(particularly Nick Hill)was very good .There were many scouts from across the leagues ,from non league to EFL .. We got some great feedback within a couple of days and my son has had interest from a few clubs already Would highly recommend if you’re looking for an open age introduction at a high level ,maybe if you’ve been released from an academy or just looking to play at a good standard ..Thanks pro11 trials ,hopefully see you again 👍👍👍

A great facility of more than 3 11 a side football pitches . The guys know their business. Scouts are every where during the trials assessing players and taking notes . Many players were scouted but not my son so it is really worth it 👍🏼😀⚽️

Thank you PRO11 trails- for organizing such a great event. After attending a recent trial with you in Camborne, Vanilson has attracted interest from several clubs. Leicester city FC, MK Dons, Oxford City, and a referral for Ipswich Town FC. Luton Town FC has been in contact after being impressed by Vanilson's performance at the trial. They wish to observe him further and will be attending his grassroots game this weekend to watch him play. As you are aware, we are also awaiting responses from other clubs.

We truly appreciate the opportunity to showcase Vanilson's talent at your event. It is a fantastic platform for young and aspiring players to demonstrate their abilities. Keep up the great work; you are making a difference in young people's lives. Thank you again for this opportunity! 👍🏾👏🏾

My U12 son went to the trial in Durham on 11th May. It was the first trial we’d been to and wasn’t sure what to expect but it was great. Well organised, relaxed and good communication. He got interest from a couple of teams too which was brilliant. Special thanks to the goalie coach who led a great session and gave some really helpful feedback - my son thought he was brilliant!! Thanks Pro11 😊

My U9 son attended a trial with pro11 in November 2024 and was picked up by three clubs. He was invited to trial with one of the clubs and has since signed a contract with them!
We are so grateful to everyone at pro11! They were welcoming, supportive, and encouraging. We loved the whole experience so much that we recommended it to one of our friends, who attended a trial and was also picked up by a number of clubs!

My son thoroughly enjoyed the trial. It was really well run and he got a lot from the day. He was fortunate enough to have a lot of interest from scouts too, so hopefully something comes from it. Either way we’ll definitely do it again. He has younger brothers too who we’ll bring along in future. Thank you!

From a parent’s perspective it was well organised with good comms/direction, and importantly my son hugely enjoyed it, too - thank you!
Will be back for sure.

Pro11 Trials provides a fantastic platform for aspiring young footballers to be scouted. In today's competitive environment, where many talented children play the game, having a strong network is essential. Pro11 Trials bridges that gap. My son was scouted into a Premier League club's development center after attending their event. We understand this is just the beginning of his football journey, and we are committed to working hard to help him progress. Thank you, Pro11!

We attended these trials for the first time this weekend and would highly recommend!
Good set up and well organized.
My son was scouted by PNE and was told straight after the event. We then received follow up emails from Pro11 and texts from the scout (both within 48hours) and my son is now booked on for a trial which he is thrilled about!
Thanks Pro11 for a great day and a fab opportunity going forward ⚽️

Attended the Midlands trials back in September. Thought it wasn't the best organisation but gave them the benefit of the doubt. Following the trial, my son was told that two clubs were interested in him. He attended a open day the following week and have never been contacted since even though we was told someone would be in touch and he'd be guaranteed a 6 week development program with one of the clubs, this is what one of the clubs told us.
Since this, there has been no contact from either club and when contacting Pro11 they say that they're still waiting to hear for a date. Nearly 6 months on, it's disappointing to say the least.
I have reached out to each academy club myself who don't seem to have any record of my son on their books.

Feels like we've been messed about.
I wouldn't recommend using this company.

**Just an update to their response: I was reaching out to Pro11 on text message where they was responding quite promptly initially. After a course of a couple of months, they ignored a couple of my text messages. So I messaged them on their "chosen" messaging service, WhatsApp. They read and ignored my last WhatsApp message and not themselves or any club have been in touch since December. Again, use them with caution.**

My son attended a trial with Pro11.I can say it was his first experience.The coaches are great,the session is very well structured with plenty of football.We recieved the fantastic news of 2 clubs interested in him.Would highly recommend this company for scout trials.Thank you so much for allowin my son to have a great and successful experience.

My son attended the Brentwood u13’s trial. He really enjoyed the experience, the coaches were very good kept him at ease and relaxed. Very well organised. They sent out emails within the 48 hours as promised. We had great news that he had 3 clubs interested. Would highly recommend. Thank you for a great experience for my son.

My son attended the Brentwood trials for U14s. It was his first experience of anything like this as he's only been playing grassroots for half a season. The coach Dwayne made my son feel extremely comfortable throughout the 2 hour trial and gave the boys fantastic drills and advice to show case their talent and skills. The event ran smoothly and was organised well. There was the opportunity to receive feedback at the end which my son was grateful to receive and as promised an email within 48hours with outcomes. My son was so happy with the trial and wanted to do another straight after and then we recieved the fantastic news of 2 clubs' interest in him. Would highly recommend this company for scout trials and will definitely use again ourselves. Thank you so much for allowing my son to have such a positive experience.

Very good, efficient and good communication

I just wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the fantastic experience at the Pro 11 event. The professionalism of the setup, the organization of the day, and the quality of the opportunities provided were truly outstanding.

From start to finish, everything was run seamlessly, and it was clear that a great deal of effort had been put into ensuring that players had the best possible platform to showcase their abilities. The presence of scouts from top clubs made the event incredibly valuable, and I and my son are truly grateful for the opportunity to have been seen by clubs like Bromley FC and Dartford FC.

Being part of such a well-structured trial has given my son a huge boost in both confidence and motivation, and I cannot thank you enough for providing such an amazing opportunity. I would highly recommend Pro 11 to any aspiring footballer looking to take their game to the next level.

We look forward to keeping you updated on the journey and will be happy to share any photos along the way!

My son attended a trial with pro11trials and I can say it was the best trial we’ve been to. The coaches are great, they are patient the atmosphere is very relaxed and the session is very well structured with plenty of football time at the end where children can play enough to show their abilities.
The feed back at the end of the helps a lot also.
We received the email they promised in less than 48 hours, exactly like they promised.
My kid got noticed by 4 clubs and we’re waiting now to see what is next.
If your son is talented and has potential, this is the place to go.
We cannot thank enough for this trial and we hope for the best for everybody attending.

Great experience for my son.
Thank you 😉

Great 2 hour session, the routines they did were good enabling the kids to show off their different skills/abilities. Nice selection of tier 1/2/3 scouts at the session. Worth the money.

Well organised venue also the coaches are fantastic so I really enjoyed also my sons
I appreciate pro11 Trails the job they doing keep going is great and once again thank you

Having attended this event with my son, I wish to provide factual and objective feedback based on my experience.

1. Supervision of Youngest Group (U10)
The youngest group, positioned on my far right from where I stood, appeared to have minimal supervision during their games. Coaches and others, possibly scouts, seemed more focused on the older age groups (15/16). Given the vulnerability of children in this age group, this raised concerns about proper safeguarding and engagement.

2. Drills and Match Management for U12-14
The U12-14 group, which included my son, participated in basic drills that did not meet the standards we associate with academy-level training. During their match, the coach left the sidelines to engage in conversation with staff, and the match continued for approximately 50 minutes without a water break or team swaps. This resulted in visible confusion and disengagement among the players.

3. Identification and Presence of Scouts
While we were informed that scouts from nearly 10 clubs were present, only four individuals were visible, representing two clubs based on their attire. This discrepancy caused confusion and concern, particularly as identification for those interacting with children should be clear and professional for safeguarding purposes.

A further observation involved a parent who appeared to join the scouts with a clipboard. This was not explained and contributed to perceptions of a lack of transparency.

4. Results Announcement
We were informed during the briefing that scouting outcomes would be announced on-site at the end of the event. However, participants were later told to await an email, which led to disappointment for many, including my son. The subsequent generic email did not align with the expectations set during registration and briefing.

Overall Experience
The experience did not meet the advertised standards. Specifically:

Scouts were not clearly identifiable, and their presence was fewer than expected.
The promise of official on-site results was not properly fulfilled.
Supervision and engagement of children, especially younger groups, was insufficient.
While we understand the challenges of organizing such events, adherence to clear safeguarding protocols, transparent communication, and higher standards of engagement would significantly improve the experience for participants and parents.

I made the company aware of my concerns before writing this review.
Their response was less than satisfactory and a follow up request hasn't been responded to.

Edited to confirm the company is fully aware of my dissatisfaction as I have been in touch with them
