Project Footballer
Project Footballer uncovers what it really takes to become a professional footballer.
We explore the journey from three angles:
1. Parents of Footballers – From grassroots families to Premier League parents like Reece and Lauren James’, we learn what they did to support their children and the habits that helped them make it.
2. Professional Footballers – Players such as Frank Lampard share how they made it, the challenges they faced, and the lessons young players need to know.
3. The Experts Behind the Pros – Premier League scouts, coaches, S&C coaches, and performance specialists explain the systems, standards, and development frameworks used at the highest level.
Our team of presenters looks for the patterns, behaviours, environments, and decisions that consistently develop footballers.
We are the voice of youth football.
