Professional Links

Since its formation, Cherrybrook has always had close links with local professional clubs.

We are honored to be part of Manchester United's Friends of the Academy scheme and Manchester City’s Friends of Grassroots partnership. Our coaches and teams regularly visit their facilities, and their coaches take sessions at Cherrybrook.

Since our formation, in 2008, we have had a very strong traditional link and close friendship with our local club, Wigan Athletic.

Our ties with our Merseyside neighbors, Everton and Liverpool, are also superb.

We have an open policy whereby scouts from professional clubs are always welcome at our facilities. Many children have passed through our ranks and have had opportunities to further develop their skills at professional academies.
