Whether they have aspirations to become professional or semi-professional players, coaches and referee's or looking to just continue playing and enjoying youth football and building social skills while they take their A-Levels this course can cater for all'' ''This is another really positive move by the Football Club, I have said before that because of Geographic’s this area is massively untapped in terms of football talent and this partnership should give the football club the tools to harness good local players coming through and develop them. I know that Hastings United FC and first team manager Nigel Kane are fully behind the project and despite his first team commitments Nigel has worked tirelessly over the last few months along with Mark Feery and Jimmy Elford at William Parker to put this together'' Interested players that are not currently being educated at ARK William Parker will be considered for the team provided the course that they are taking at an alternative education provider cannot be accommodated by ARK WP next year. The Academy will also be able to give some footballing opportunities to players that are not in any form of education but are eligible through age.
