On the other hand, there’s an increase interest of local participation in our school but we have seen such cases whereby that the player decided not to play for Albirex because the language barrier.
To discourage that, we have established the newly Albirex Singapore Football Academy aiming to provide more opportunity of playing football to local kids by skilled Singaporean coaches that can deliver the Albirex in English, and operate locally.
We advance the localization of our club and focus on the development of Singaporean players while we establish the U-15s and U-17s, and Singaporeans are allowed to join us since 2018 to sign with our professional team.
This time, we will contribute more to Singapore society in both football and education by establishing the football academy.

Till date, we have developed soccer schools in Singapore, but more for our Japanese community and sessions were conducted in our native language.On the other hand, there’s an increase interest of local participation in our school but we have seen such cases whereby that the player decided not to play for Albirex because the language barrier.
To discourage that, we have established the newly Albirex Singapore Football Academy aiming to provide more opportunity of playing football to local kids by skilled Singaporean coaches that can deliver the Albirex in English, and operate locally.
We advance the localization of our club and focus on the development of Singaporean players while we establish the U-15s and U-17s, and Singaporeans are allowed to join us since 2018 to sign with our professional team.
