That's all it is a development centre where anyone can join its just a money spinner for the person who set it up.
It's not an academy.

Jason, its £45 every 9 weeks,limited numbers and Swansea only chose 12 out of 150 Cardiff/Newport kids last week :shock: so they are being very choosy and cant be making any money out of it?

My opinion they are stealing our future talent.

I don't think there will be any money being made Annis, when this forum raised money, over £6000, it was done so because the costs our youngsters were paying, £25 every 6 weeks, didn't cover the costs to run the development centres.

How come they have to pay for kit and tracksuits as all academy's give out three kits.

Carl, Scott Young said to us,we struggle big time for money for the kids even after they pay us £25 each.
