Last season was once again an outstanding year for students of the BW PASE Academy in partnership with Barnet and Southgate College claiming another National Title, a fifth in three years which is just fantastic.
With the end of a season comes graduates though and this year we have a number of commendable athletes moving on to pastures now after shining throughout their time with BW PASE.
Fred Burbidge, Ionut (Alex) Radu, Shaquille Ismael, Callum Stead, Alex Morgan, Cheyce Grant, Daniel Creese, Justin Wilson, Jack Gibbs, Fiace Kehou, Blake Nwosu, Tarell Watson-Noel and Iliman Ndiaye will all be starting the next step of their lives in September after an incredibly successful time with the academy.
We would like to pass on special mentions to Fred Burbidge, Alex Radu, Alex Morgan and Daniel Creese who spent the whole four years with the BW PASE Academy from Under 16’s level right the way through to Under 19’s.
Burbidge, Creese, Morgan and Cheyce Grant also went on to represent their country for the England Colleges Football Association, a terrific achievement and experience for them during their time under our leadership.
Head Coach Cameron Mawer said: “It all started with the Under 16’s, we recruited a group of boys who not only had talent but had the ADD factor (attitude, discipline and desire). I remember our first competitive game against Broxbroune in the EJA league and we got beat 2-1 and if I’m honest I thought it’s going to be a long season, but as a group they grew and grew and now having been the most successful group to progress through the academy I look back at every single one of them with so much pride.
“The memories they take from their time with us is something you can’t replicate; they have set a bench mark on and off the pitch for future players on how they should conduct themselves. The best compliment I can pay them is that every team we now face at our level, play it like a cup final and that’s because the club we are and the standards these boys set.
“Some have got a real opportunity to go on and progress in the game and play at a good level but I want to thank them for all their efforts, I am a relentless man in what I demand and they have continued to rise to every challenge set. I wish them all the best with everything they do in life after watching them grow from boys to men, I really look forward to catching up with them in the future.”
