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.

WE ARE NOT A CLUB, WE ARE A SCHOOL
"Our focus is on building an environment where the players can come every day and feel safe, respected, and progress comes from dedication, focus, comradery, enjoyment, repetition, quality teaching and continues "feedforward".
Andrew Bascome, Founder and President
Our philosophy cannot be more visibly represented than Coach Cooper's perseverance and dedication. Congratulations on your next step on your journey, a position solely earned on your own merits, personality, and focus!

If there is one person that has had the greatest impact and affect on Andrew Bascome, and Bascome Football School, 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!
In order to be able to offer a bursary and scholarship program, both for players who require financial assistance, and to be able to assist young coaches setting out to make youth coaching a full time profession, your support will make a huge difference.
