ABOUT THE ACADEMY
Funds raised by Arsenal fans applying for, and using their
Arsenal Credit Card, have contributed significantly to the
Youth Development programme headed by Liam Brady. Since 2001,
when the Arsenal Academy in East London opened, players from
9 to 16 years of age have been able to develop their game
within a first-class environment.
Play a key part in the development of future
Highbury stars apply for the Arsenal Credit Card today!
The running costs of the Academy are in excess
of £200,000 per annum, with recent additional costs
including the £300,000 required for an artificial pitch
and drainage improvements to bring the pitches to an excellent
standard.
We will continue to use these funds to assist
our Youth Development Programme, with future funds contributing
towards a proposed indoor centre at the Academy.
Also for the first time, revenues generated
will help benefit our ‘Arsenal in the Community’
initiatives by funding more Arsenal
Soccer Schools in more locations, both at home and abroad.
We hope these will enable children to enjoy their football,
to learn more about the game and to play with the right spirit
and attitude.
