The UK's premier football scouting event — connecting undiscovered talent with the professional game.
Street Trials is a ground breaking, market disrupting way of getting 16 to 22 year old undiscovered talent seen by professional football club scouts in a 7-a-side urban street environment. We give players the chance to showcase their talent in front of leading scouts.
Thousands of talented players are missed every year. There are three categories:
Academy systems make decisions at key development stages. Some young players are let go before they've fully developed physically or mentally. Their potential only becomes clear later.
By the time a player makes their way through grassroots into visible structures, the traditional scouting window has already closed.
The most talented street and grassroots footballers exist entirely outside traditional scouting networks. They're invisible to the professional game.
Street Trials provides a direct pathway from street football into the professional game:
Grassroots, urban and academy-released players are recruited
High-intensity 7-a-side matches, fully filmed and recorded
Professional clubs attend in person or receive full match footage
Top players progress into real opportunities
Backed by a Senior Premier League Talent ID Scout
Official venue partnership with Goals Football Centres
Projection: over 10,000 players trialled within 24 months
"Street Trials gives hidden talent a real shot — giving raw, undiscovered players a unique platform to showcase their potential in front of professional scouts and Talent ID Scouts. It's an exciting and life changing opportunity."
