Questions

Squad answers

Can I get a player to sign my shirt?

Players sign for fans at the club shop after every home game for twenty minutes. Crown members also meet the squad at the end of season evening.

How do players join from the academy?

Academy players train with the first team from 16. Contracts are offered from 17, with schooling support until they finish secondary school.

Do you take open trials for adults?

Not for the first team. Scouts watch the Enugu amateur leagues every weekend. Send a highlight video to the academy office if you play at that level.
