[kingy10]

They are the best under 6 side in the Country. All of them at pro clubs. Currently Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Watford after him.

Only 6 years old though. Crazy really.

So if a club "signs" such a small child, the parents will not have to pay for training or anything? Or do they also get some small fee from the club or something?

No money involved. They just training at the various academies. My nephew is training with Chelsea and Spurs. He supports Arsenal though so is likely to go there at some stage.

Kingy I was listening to talksport and one of the managers were on there saying they are always looking for new kids, was wondering if I could bring my boy down he's currently 4 and will be 5 in December, want to get him into a club and playing soon as, do you have any info?

The child doesn't pay to train, not at a academy or centre of excellence, some clubs help out with travelling costs not many though, the most helpful is Chelsea, surprise, surprise. Also a club cant sign a boy until under 9 they can keep them in training camps and have nights with them but they can't legally sign them until 9.

[kingo]

Anyone know what the name of the team is ? Reason I ask is my lad is 6 (but plays for an Under 8 side) and they are very successful and only one side they have come up against has matched them, Ruislip Rangers.

[winalotto]

I know they play in Ickenham, don't no there name though.
