This isn’t ordinary.

We develop people.

We care about:
💙 Your confidence
💙 Your wellbeing
💙 Your growth on and off the pitch

Because the player matters.
But the person matters more.

⸻

This isn’t just a club.
This isn’t just a girls section.

This is something different — for all the right reasons.

⸻

And when it comes to football…
We do that properly too.

🇳🇱 Netherlands Tour 2026 – Completed it.

What a journey.

Here’s just a small preview of what we’ve achieved over the last 6 days… with so much more still to come — including U15 Champions celebrations, U13 & U14 3rd place finishes, and plenty more unforgettable moments.

⚽ 1350+ miles travelled
👥 92 players, parents & volunteers (and many more who joined us out there)
🏆 5 teams competing
🥇 3 trophies won
🔒 4 group stages topped without conceding a goal
💙 Thousands of memories made

⸻

On a personal note…

Thank you to every coach and volunteer who gave up their time to make this happen.
Thank you to the parents for trusting us with your children.
And most importantly — thank you to the players.

You represented this club exactly how it should be represented.

We’ve made memories.
We’ve made friendships.
We’ve travelled across Europe.
And we’ve done it together.

I genuinely don’t think we could have ended the season in a better way.

From the bottom of my heart — thank you.

Prestbury Girls Academy – Netherlands Tour 🇳🇱

Day 2 & Day 3 Update

Day 2
After the journey, the girls enjoyed a well-earned, more relaxed day — making the most of the facilities with swimming, good food, and most importantly… building new friendships with players from across Europe.

Moments like these are what it’s all about 💙

⸻

Day 3 – Tournament Football Begins ⚽🔥

The football kicked off in style as our:
U12s, U13s, U14 Warriors, U14 Trojans and U15s all stepped onto the European stage.

What followed was nothing short of outstanding.

🌟 U13s, U14s & U15s
• Topped their groups
• Zero goals conceded
• Dominant, disciplined, and clinical performances

🌟 U12s
• Faced a very tough group
• Played some fantastic football throughout
• Narrowly missed out in the first two games
• Bounced back brilliantly to win their third

The character, effort, and quality on show from every single player has been incredible.

⸻

This tournament isn’t just about results — it’s about experiences, growth, and representing the badge with pride.

And the girls are doing exactly that 💙

⸻

Day 4 – Tournament Day 2 is now underway…
Let’s go again 🔥⚽

Prestbury on Tour – Day 1 🇫🇷⚽

After a long but exciting journey to Lille, we arrived safely and checked into our hotel.

From there, it was straight into an unforgettable experience at EVA VR… and wow, what an experience that was! 🎮🔥
The girls, coaches, and parents all got stuck in – energy levels instantly back to 100%.

To top it all off, we finished the evening with what can only be described as enough food to feed 3000! 🍕🍔😅

A brilliant first day to kick off the tour – memories already being made.

Next stop… more football, more experiences, and more moments together. 💙⚽
