ABOUT US

Every great player starts with a dream — a dream to touch the ball, wear the jersey, and make their nation proud. Reliance Future Football Academy (RFFA) was born from that same dream — the belief that with the right guidance, discipline, education, and opportunity, young Africans can rise to compete and shine on the world stage.

At RFFA, we go beyond football training. We shape champions in character, mind, and talent. Our academy uniquely combines world-class soccer coaching with quality education, ensuring that every player grows not only as an athlete but also as a well-rounded, intelligent individual prepared for life beyond the pitch. We believe that true excellence happens when academic brilliance meets sporting passion.

We welcome boys aged 11 to 15 who show promise both in the classroom and on the field — young minds eager to learn, lead, and excel. Through our carefully designed programs, these students receive professional football training while pursuing their academic studies. Our dual-track model opens doors to educational and soccer opportunities abroad, particularly in the United States, where our players continue to learn, compete, and thrive.

Our story is one of hope, passion, and transformation. Every kick, every lesson, and every match at RFFA is a step toward building confident, disciplined, and globally minded student-athletes. We are nurturing dreams, inspiring ambition, and guiding our players to become leaders who will make Africa proud both on and off the field.

Reliance Future Football Academy — Learn, play, and succeed.

Programs/ Age Groups (Ages 11 – 15)

At Reliance Future Football Academy, we are committed to developing well-rounded student-athletes by combining academic excellence with soccer training. Our program is open to talented boys between the ages of 11 and 15.

We carefully select players who demonstrate outstanding potential in soccer and who excel equally in their academics. Admission to our academy goes beyond football talent — every child must demonstrate the ability to excel academically while displaying creativity, intelligence, and discipline on the field.

Through our programs, successful players will be offered opportunities to secure admission into reputable middle age schools and high schools in the United States, where they will continue their education while advancing their soccer careers. This dual-track approach ensures that our players grow into not just great athletes but also well-rounded individuals prepared for global opportunities.
