After 6 incredible seasons I’ve recently made the difficult decision to step away from my role at Kidderminster Harriers Academy 👇⚽️

@TheSecretScout_ Didn’t Cara recently call it the food chain

@Michael1Owen Crazy when you think of club DNA / Culture wide players, attacking front foot football huge part of that at MU. It’s like Barca having no tecky mids

[Richard Dalton @ContactCounts]

The biggest lesson to everyone involved in youth football -

Middle/bottom of the group u11-16
Failed loans 18-21

Is the 14 yr old early maturated game dominator really the ‘best’ prospect 👀 don’t ignore technique & 🧠 . It’s often early 20s before all have fully matured ⚽️

Work hard in silence. Let success be your noise. 🏆

Another goal contribution with a smart assist - 8 x ⚽️🅰️ aged 17. Still learning still developing but contributing to the team and being given a platform to develop 🙏⚽️

More than the danger I’d call it the norm unfortunately 🤯

[Jorg van der Breggen @JvanderB78]

The danger in talent ID?

We measure who is ahead today
and call it potential for tomorrow.

Bigger. Faster. Stronger. Earlier maturing.

Sometimes we’re not predicting the future at all.
We’re simply selecting the present.

Somewhere behind the best football memories is a coach who let them play ⚽️

Freedom and a smile on his face were Morgan Rogers' highlights.

A proud night watching both boys play on Aggborough together.

Two years ago wasn’t sure George would play football again due to health and last night he was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch 🔥⚽️

[Harriers Academy @harriersacademy]

[48] It’s Dalton again!

He drops his shoulder, twists and turns and fires at the goal!
