We do not just coach football. We develop young people.
EPA Football Academy is a professional development programme built on a simple belief: every young player deserves a proper pathway — not just a kickabout.
Since 2018, we have partnered with the West Ham United Foundation to deliver world-class coaching methodology right here in Bangkok. Our coaches are UEFA-qualified. Our curriculum is developed in collaboration with WHUF in London. And our results speak for themselves — 3 players signed to WHUF Academy teams.
We believe in development over matches and tournaments. Small-sided games. Individual Development Plans. Long-term commitment, not quick fixes. Every player — from a 4-year-old in Mini-Hammers to a 17-year-old on the Pro-Academy Pathway — is seen, challenged, and supported.
And we do not stop for school holidays. Training runs every week — through camps, Songkran and every Thai public holiday. Most academies in Bangkok pause for the summer; we believe development shouldn’t.
Individual Development Plans. Small-sided games. Both feet, every session.
From Bangkok to London. University scholarships. Pro-player ambitions.
Confidence, leadership, and resilience — football is the vehicle.
Since 2018, EPA has been an official partner of the West Ham United Foundation — one of the most respected community and development programmes in English football.
This is not a badge on a website. It is a working partnership. WHUF coaches visit Bangkok three times per year. Our best players travel to London on biannual training trips to train at WHUF facilities. Our coaching curriculum, methodology, and player pathway are developed in direct collaboration.
The partnership runs until 2031, with 3 EPA players already signed to WHUF Academy teams.
These are not just stories. They are proof that the EPA pathway works.
Unna joined EPA aged 11 and became the first Thai female to sign a contract with an English top-tier club. She joined the WHUF Women's U18 team and won the Junior Premier League and Cup double in her first season.
In just two years, Aya developed through the Girls Academy and earned her place with the WHUF Women's U18 squad. She made her debut in the Junior Premier League against Watford U18s.
Sebastien became EPA's first male signing at WHUF level, joining the U15 squad. His journey is proof that the boys' pathway is just as real as the girls'.
2 more EPA players heading to London for extended trials — October 2026.
Beyond the pitch, EPA alumni are gaining entry to top universities and colleges around the world — and building coaching careers within the WHUF network.
