January 2024 Roundup
January Roundup at PSA
As the new year unfolds, we're excited to outline the exciting achievements and developments that took place at PSA in January.
U10s in JPL Winter Finals
Despite it being a very cold morning our talented U10s travelled to Rugby to compete against some of the best teams in the nation from the Junior Premiere League - JPL in the Winter Finals.
The boys performed exceptionally well throughout the day, and they managed to pick up their medals and trophy for placing second in their group.
The boys will be working hard to come back for the Summer Cup!!
Showcase Games
Throughout January, we coordinated showcase games, offering our skilled players a platform to showcase their abilities. These events not only nurtured healthy competition but also provided these clubs with a glimpse of the remarkable talent within PSA. Notable matchups in the month included Cambridge, QPR, Crystal Palace, AFC Bournemouth, and Stevenage.
As we move into February, we look forward to building on this momentum with more exciting showcase games.
The Girls Are Doing Fantastic
Our girls' teams have excelled in the GSL - Girls Super League, showcasing exceptional performances. Their commitment to the sport and effective teamwork has translated into remarkable achievements on the pitch. As an organisation, we remain dedicated to supporting and nurturing the development of girls' football and look forward to the coming months!
Additionally, it's worth noting that our U14s also participated in the Soccer Elite Tours New Year's Cup, being the sole girls' team in the competition. They embraced the challenge and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Well done girls!
PSA/Tring U18s Are Flying!
The success of the PSA/Tring Under 18s team underscores the strength and depth of our youth development programs. Their outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship mirror the values we aim to instill across all our teams. Importantly, they maintain an undefeated record in the league, with their only defeat this season occurring in the FA Youth Cup game against Leyton Orient.
Adding to our recent accomplishments, we celebrated a remarkable win against Hemel Town U18s, a win that carries extra weight due to the competitive history between our teams.
The next game is on Thursday against Kings Langley @ Tring Athletic FC - Kick Off 7:45PM.

Our New Home At Redbourn
For the 2024/25 season, PSA are starting a huge project which will give us a brand new headquarters in partnership with Redbourn Leisure Centre.
So what is happening?
A brand new 3G Astro is going to be built, which we will have exclusive access to, along with many grass pitches which we have begun to currently use. This will in turn mean things like all our home JPL Fixtures can be played in the same place & we will have a brand new training ground which we can call home!
- New Classrooms for our students.
- New Offices for our PSA staff members.
- New state of the art training facilities.
- Viewing gallery with fully equipped Bar & Coffee shop.
- A great experience for parents to watch or work while training or games are taking place.
We will keep you updated on the progress, so watch this space!
