Safeguarding
Children deserve a safe, respectful environment with clear boundaries, trusted adults and a route to raise concerns.
The Della Torre standard
Care, clarity
and accountability.
Our public commitments are informed by the academy’s internal policies and development plans. They guide how we recruit, train, support and represent young people.
Conduct
Players, staff and visitors are expected to act with discipline, respect, fairness and responsibility on and off the pitch.
Scouting
Talent identification should be transparent, age-appropriate and focused on long-term player welfare, not short-term promises.
Medical support
Health, injury prevention, recovery and timely referral are part of responsible player development.
Nutrition
Food and hydration support the training load, growth and wellbeing of every young player.
Long-term development
We measure progress over time across football, learning, character and life beyond the game.
