FCB U18 Knock-Out Champions 2023/24
The U18 team further solidified their position as the team to beat this season by wining the U18 Knock-Out Tournament, played at National Sports Centre on April 7th. The game kicked off at 1:30pm, before the F.A. Cup final between St George's and North Village at 4:00pm (Featuring Coach Drewonde Bascome, Tyrell Burgess and Liam Evans). They led NVCC 3-1 after the first half, with goals from Christian Piney, Mosiais Mills, and Ramsey Soutter. Second half proved to be a little bit more challenging, with FCB having to play against the wind. NVCC pulled one back, and with 15 minutes left on the clock FCB was reduced to 10 men. However, the Blues stayed organized, showed a lot of character, and fought to the end, winning the game 3-2. Masaki Kitade received the MVP for FCB. Well done!
Huge thank you goes out to Andrew Bascome for his vision and relentless focus on youth player and coach development. To Coach Mark and Coach Jibri for a stellar year. To Racquel and Tammoi for managing the team.

Welcome to Bascome FC
Our club philosophy is based on the guiding principle that FOOTBALL MATTERS. It matters in many aspects of our lives in Bermuda and as global citizens. It connects people; young and old through the role of coaches, community, players and parents.
Because FOOTBALL MATTERS, our primary goal is to develop the Bermuda football product to a similar or better level than most internationally recognized academies and school, enabling Bermuda's young players to remain in Bermuda until they are technically, physically, mentally and maturity wise, ready and able to pursue their dreams in an international setting. Might it be with a fully funded four year scholarship to a college or university, or a pre-professional contract for a club. Recognizing that we can also provide an entertainment outlet for Bermuda and Bermuda football fans alike.
A word from Andrew Bascome
"Thank you to all the players, coaches, and parents for all the hard work, dedication and belief in what we do - the 2022/23 season has been an absolute break-out year for us. Fully energized by this, we will now drive our program to the next level in the pursuit of our vision. Just like we tell you, incremental learning and improvements will make you a better player, so is our pledge to you regarding our program development."
Andrew Bascome, Founder, President and Program Director

BFC's "Patron Saint" - Your wisdom and experience guide us every day, and your ideas are as relevant today as they were in 2010.
If there is one person that has had the greatest impact and affect on Coach Bascome, and Bascome Football Company, in his desire to create the best youth football development organization possible, it is Jacques Crevoisier. Mr. Crevoisier at the time when we teamed up with him was a UEFA Grassroots development director, overseeing grassroots development in all 55 countries within UEFA. We owe so much to him, and we are eternally grateful for having worked with him for over ten years, until his untimely death on May 16th 2020. He remains within what we do on a daily basis, not the least because we were fortunate to have his vast knowledge memorialized in the four Bermuda coaching handbooks that we authored together. Those handbooks form the framework for everything that we do.

Jacques' experience, knowledge and persona was always shared with every coach, club and administrator in Bermuda, neither Jacques, ABC Football Foundation, nor Coach Bascome would have wanted any other way. Together we achieve more!
