Thank you and here is instant access to the process of applying for a Charlton Athletic Football Trial London. Read this fully for details, and it tells you now what you need to do to apply get scouted.
We show you and can now advise you on the process to getting a trial with a Football League Team
Get your Charlton Trial Chance
Charlton Athletic have a large scouting network with scouts watching games and tournaments in and around London and surrounding area, who monitor young players playing for their Town or District team, local boys club or school. So the more you play, the more likely you are to get scouted, to play for Carlton Athletic Football Academy.
It is through watching these games that Charlton Athletic scouts become aware of good footballing boys with outstanding potential.
Generally ALL scouts do not announce their presence at games as we believe that if players know a scout is present it can affect their performance.
It is important to note that any Charlton Athletic Football Club Scout that approaches a player will have appropriate ID. Any approach from someone purporting to be from the club, but who does not have sufficient ID should not be taken seriously.
Players aged 16 to 18 years of age ONLY here are your trial datesCharlton Athletic Community Trust Trial Application
Charlton Athletic Scouting Trial network
Through this network of scouts, Charlton Athletic receive football scouting regular reports on football players. It is this process that they use to then bring in young football players with potential to Celtic Football Academy for club trials and player assessment.
This is their main source of recruiting young and talented players.
Should you wish to be considered for a trial, the following procedure below will apply.
If the scout feels that the player has shown potential to play at Academy level, an approach will be made to the manager of your club as well as your parents and you will be invited in for a trial with Charlton Athletic Football Club.
The trial will last for a maximum of six weeks during which time the player will train and play with the current registered players in your age group.
During your trial period you will be monitored by your age group coach and recruitment staff.
A decision will be made within three to six weeks whether to sign you as a Charlton Athletic player or release you from your trial and monitor you at your Saturday / Sunday club. Charlton Athletic Football Club Academy does not hold open trial dates.

Academy Regulations
Boys U9 - U11 are allowed to be registered at an Academy provided they live within one hour travelling distance.For boys in the U12 - U16 age categories the travelling time to training/coaching is extended to 1 ½ hours.
Under 9 to Under 13 players who live outside restricted time and distance zones are not eligible for a trial.
Here are stringent Rules and Regulations set by the Premier League for trials for boys born OUTSIDE UK ONLY. In summary:
The earliest time a boy can attend an Academy for assessment is at the start of his under 14 season.
We are obliged to include restrictions on suitability - that a boy can only trial if he is recommended by one of our scouts or contacts. If he is deemed suitable for assessment he still cannot register for an Academy unless he resides within 1½ hour of its base - even then the boy must not be moving into the area for that purpose i.e. it can only be for family and not football reasons e.g. maybe the parent(s) moves jobs / positions to enhance his/her career.
If the boy is an EU/EEA citizen then he can sign as a Scholar aged 16, not before.
If the boy is not an EU/EEA citizen then the earliest he can sign is aged 18 and even then it is dependent upon eligibility for a Work Permit.
