Football is a cruel game that can sometimes leave you on the scrapheap. From a talented youngster touted for greatness to ‘what could’ve been’ is a tale told by many players.
For many it is a trip down to the unemployment office and a lifetime living with a shattered dream however over in Gibraltar of all places, there just maybe a chance of salvation.
Europa Point F.C intends to be the stepping stone for these young rejected players. John Gontier, the club’s chairman is the League Football Education placement coordinator in Spain and it is his footballing philosophy which will give a second chance, development time and “adult matches” to under 18 English players released from English clubs.
His aim is simple, to blend English grit with the Spanish way of playing. Gontier is confident that his program will be the perfect place to develop future professionals and with Europa Point FC, provide a focal point that will win the hearts and passion of football fans worldwide. After all, who doesn’t love an underdog betting on “giving a second chance” and “making dreams that cross borders come true”.
As well as the chance of redemption for these young released players, a mouth-watering prospect of European football in the form of UEFA Champions League and Europa League awaits the league and cup winners in Gibraltar as a result of the full UEFA membership granted to the British Overseas territory on the 24th of May.
For young players rejected by the English, Spanish and Gibraltarian system this truly is their chance to become the next stars.
