May 2026 Roundup

U15 JPL National Vase Champions!

One of the standout achievements this month came from our U15s, who were crowned JPL National Vase Champions following an outstanding season.

Competing against strong opposition from across the country, the squad demonstrated exceptional quality, determination and togetherness throughout the competition, culminating in a fantastic victory on the national stage.

This achievement is a testament to the hard work and commitment shown by the players and coaching staff throughout the season. The team’s attitude, professionalism and willingness to continually improve have been key factors in their success.

To be recognised as national champions is a remarkable accomplishment and one that everyone connected with Talent-X should be incredibly proud of.

Congratulations to our U15 National Vase Champions on an unforgettable achievement.

FOUR Academy SigningS!

BIG NEWS!

May was another incredible month for Talent-X Academy, with four more players taking the next step in their football journeys by securing academy opportunities.

A huge congratulations to Rowan Pearson, Charlie Tavaré and Tino Hansard, who have all signed with Watford FC Academy, alongside Ariel Freeman, who has signed with Milton Keynes Dons Academy.

These signings are a reflection of the dedication, commitment and hard work each player has shown throughout their time with Talent-X. Their willingness to learn, develop and consistently push themselves has helped them earn these fantastic opportunities at professional academies.

We are incredibly proud of all four players and their families for the commitment they have shown along the way. Seeing our players progress into academy football is what Talent-X is all about, and these achievements are thoroughly deserved.

Congratulations to Rowan, Ariel, Charlie and Tino on this fantastic achievement.

We can’t wait to follow your journeys and see what the future holds.

Showcase Games!

One of the standout moments from May saw our U9-U11 players travel to take on MK Dons in a fantastic academy fixture.

Facing strong opposition in a professional environment, the game provided an excellent opportunity for players to test themselves, showcase their abilities and gain valuable experience against academy-level opposition.

The squad represented Talent-X brilliantly throughout, demonstrating great attitude, determination and quality both on and off the pitch. Experiences like these are invaluable in supporting player development and exposing young players to the standards required within the academy system.

A fantastic occasion for everyone involved and another brilliant opportunity for our players to continue their development journey.
