Information

Here's a few quick points about the School.

Where?: We train at the Toryglen Regional Football Centre in Toryglen, in the southside of Glasgow (across the road from Hampden Park at Aitkenhead Road). The league matches are also played here unless stated otherwise.

When?: Training takes place on Friday nights from 6pm-8pm. Coaches like to start sharp so we'd appreciate that good timekeeping is noted. League games take place on Sunday mornings unless stated otherwise, times are varied each week so please be sure to check the updated fixtures here on this blog. We also ask for the children to be there at least 15 minutes before kick off, this gives the coach time to take a small warm up and also a team talk. We may arrange friendly games against teams at other venues, again we'll keep you updated both in person and on the blog.

What?: The club-training strip must be worn at all training sessions. The reason for this is that it actively breaks down barriers and empowers our young people with a sense of pride, identity and belonging to our club. It also projects a good professional image of our organisation, which will help promote us in and around the local community. Club rain jackets are also available at an additional cost which is applicable at the time of purchase. For further details or to order a training kit please phone or text Stevie on 07931149621. Size’s are as follows, (MB 28/30, LB 30/ 32, Y 32/34).


Who?: Our school is open to children ages 7-11 years (03's - 00's)

Cost?:  The first session is free of charge as an introductory offer. Thereafter, membership cost’s £25 where your child receives a full training strip and one further free session. The cost per session then is £4 on a pay as you play basis. There is no cost to participate in the league, however places are limited and inclusion depends on achieving certain criteria.

Who to see?: The main organiser of the School is Stevie Morton. His contact details can be found on the official Clyde FC Website and also on the coaches section on this blog. Again, if you need to contact a specific coach then the coaches section will direct you there.

Why Clyde?: At the present moment the Clyde FC first team may be at the depths of Scottish Football. While everyone will blame finances, we are still proud to work under the name of Clyde and we expect that everyone who pulls on a Clyde jersey to share the same enthusiasm, work ethic and willingness to play with self-pride. We appreciate we may not be the best, however we are all human beings at the end of the day and everyone here pulls together and strives to make success. We have a great record in producing players who later join various pro youth sides and we aim to maintain this and who knows, perhaps one day YOUR child may pull on the Clyde jersey for real and compete at the top level.
