YOUNGSTERS from Pro Touch Soccer Academy are looking forward to a fixture list that the professionals would be proud of as they prepare to tackle a host of top clubs in 2015. 

In the coming weeks more than 100 players from across Camden and Islington will get the chance to show off their skills against youth teams representing Championship sides Millwall, Watford and Reading. 

But the action won’t stop there as the academy has also finalised games against a number of Premier League sides, including Spurs and West Ham. If the boys are really lucky they might even be in for a surprise or two, like meeting Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino, who showed up out of the blue in October to watch the Ocean Outdoor Pro Invitational Football Festival at Market Road, Islington.
