The importance of a footballer's education

The importance of a footballer's education

Published Tuesday 30th of November

For some, this may negatively impact a youngster ego, however Luke is determined to stay grounded and focus on his education. In an interview he said this:

‘After getting a flurry of A*s and As in his GCSEs, Matheson started studying for his A-Levels in September. And it was back to reality the morning after his heroics against United, as he sat a psychology test at Trinity Sixth Form in Manchester.’

‘My education is something that I'm so passionate about. Hopefully I have a long playing career, but education is something you can fall back on, regardless of who you are and what you've done.’

‘If I work really hard in football and my education for the next two years it'll be more than worth it. I go to college whenever I have a day off here, I stay a couple of hours after everyone else sitting with the teachers, I do a couple of hours after training, or a couple of hours after a game. It's a lot of work, but I enjoy it.’

Luke is a prime example of what UK Football Schools is trying to emphasise – the importance of a footballer’s education – that there are many good colleges in England for UK football training, along with the growth of a now popular route of a boarding football academy or boarding schools in the UK.

A footballers career is often short and for this reason, UK Football Schools recommend some excellent England football colleges and some of the best soccer universities in England which emphasise the importance of attaining a solid education to fall back onto. Not only this, but some of these England football colleges regularly playing professional football academies in the UK to develop optimal levels of exposure for players!

In the past, many people stereotyped footballers to be less intelligent. However, in more recent years, there have been many professional footballers that have studied and graduated with a degree or an excellent level of education from school or co. This is through the help of soccer schools in England, football academies in the UK, good colleges in England and UK football training whilst at university.

Some established players, such as: Romelu Lukaku, Juan Mata, Frank Lampard, Will Hughes and Vincent Kompany, just to name a few! This will set them up perfectly for when they finish their careers, whether they stay in football as a coach, commentator, presenter or if they wish to set up businesses outside of football. If these guys are doing it, why wouldn’t you want to develop your education further alongside your football development?
