Hello

How do you get the opportunity to get a non league side to give you a trial?

I feel i'm good enough and easily play at that level, how do i get a chance?

Please let me know

What age are you Morgan? Do you play for a local side, and are they any good? Do you represent your County? Have you had trials with any League Clubs or been in any Academies/Centres of Excellence?

You need to get yourself playing at as high a level as possible as you're not of an age where scouts will really consider watching low level amateur games. Youth football attracts the scouts but very few would be trawling anything below semi-pro level. I'd suggest you contact all the clubs within, say, an hour's drive of home by sending them a copy of your footballing C.V. i.e. age, position, height, weight, 100m time, games played, who for, what level(s), what representative honours (if any), trophies won, goals scored etc. and request they offer you a trial or even just send someone to watch you play. If you've got any video footage of your matches, offer it to them. Don't mention any disciplinary records! Wink Good luck.

Your best bet mate is to ring the local non league clubs Enty who is the manager of Bamber Bridge my local club told me that if you ring up he will always invite players down to training to have a look.
