Know anyone with a sweet left foot?
Port Vale are holding a ‘Left-Footer Talent Identification Day’ in the hope of adding some talented youngsters to their academy.
The League Two side is on the lookout for left-sided youth players and are giving prospects the opportunity to show what they can do with their left peg at a special recruitment day next month.
Roughly 20 per cent of the world’s population is left-footed and Port Vale must be right-heavy because they are encouraging youngsters with some finesse on their left to send their name, age, school year, address, contact number, height, weight, position, attributes and playing history to lee.foyle@port-vale.co.uk to apply for the session.
❓ Do you, or someone you know, have a sweet left-foot and think you have the potential to play Academy football? If so, Port Vale Academy may just have the opportunity for you! 👟
