Football Experiences in England
Bespoke experiences for clubs, academies and coaches — built around access that takes decades to build.
England is the home of the modern game. Its academies, stadiums and coaching environments set the standard against which football development is measured worldwide. For clubs, coaching groups and academies visiting from abroad, the opportunity to train, compete and learn within that environment is genuinely transformative.
I have spent 32 years inside professional football in England — as a player, an academy coach at Manchester United, and a coach educator with the PFA and the FA. The relationships I have built across that time open doors that are not available through conventional tour operators. Every experience I offer is shaped by those relationships, and by a clear understanding of what your group actually needs to take home something of real value.

The experiences
Six ways to bring your group to England
Academy Fixtures
Competitive football is the sharpest possible test of where your squad or coaching programme really stands. Through my network in English football, I can arrange fixtures against Category 1, 2 and 3 Premier League academies — giving your players a genuine benchmark against some of the best young talent in the world. Matches are arranged to suit your age group, level and dates, with post-match debrief and feedback available.
Premier League Match Day Experiences
Attending a live Premier League match is one of football's great experiences — and for coaches, players and club staff visiting from abroad, the atmosphere, organisation and spectacle of top-flight English football is as educational as it is memorable. I can arrange match day attendance at fixtures involving Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Everton, Blackburn Rovers and Burnley, depending on the fixture schedule and your dates.
Premier League Stadium Tours
A stadium tour gives your group an insight into the infrastructure, culture and history behind elite English football. Walking the same corridors as some of the game's greatest players, seeing the dressing rooms, the pitch and the media facilities — it connects your group to the environment in a way that stays with them. Tours can be arranged at leading Premier League grounds across the north of England.
The National Football Museum, Manchester
Housed in the heart of Manchester, the National Football Museum holds the world's largest collection of football memorabilia, history and culture. For visiting groups, it provides a fascinating cultural dimension to any football programme. Visits can be tailored with guided sessions and discussion led by Hasney to draw out the development and leadership lessons within the exhibits.
Elite Coaching & Mentoring
For UEFA A Licensed coaches and coaching staff looking to develop their practice, I offer direct coaching sessions, observation, feedback and mentoring delivered to the highest professional standard. As an AFC Pro Licensed Tutor who has delivered UEFA A, B and C Licence programmes through the FA and the PFA, I bring a depth of experience that is genuinely rare. This is not generic content — it is coaching support built around you.
Educational Workshops, Seminars & Mentoring
Football development is about far more than what happens on the pitch. My educational sessions draw on 32 years of experience across professional playing, academy coaching, coach education and national programme leadership to address the themes that matter most to your group — building a coaching philosophy, designing a development framework, managing talent pathways, supporting player transitions or leading a coaching workforce.
