Bristol Rovers Academy are looking to recruit Host Families to support our young players between the ages of 16-18 years old.
We currently have around 150 young players within the Academy, some of whom stay with Host Families, allowing them to take the opportunity of full-time employment at the Football Club as either an apprentice or professional player.
We are looking for families who can provide a suitable safe, home-from-home environment on a bed, breakfast, and evening meal basis, covering 7 nights per week.
It is advantageous if your home is close to the Club’s primary venue of The Memorial Stadium, Filton Avenue BS7 0BF.
All family members over the age of 18 will be required to complete a DBS Enhanced Criminal Record Check with Children’s Barred Check List, as well as mandatory safeguarding training.
