Harli’s transformation since joining the FSD Academy has been brilliant for the young man. He now has a real understanding of his qualities and how to utilise them to achieve success in life.
I started at FSD in 2019 after I made a phone call to Owen Johnson. I had known Owen previously through football and I was at a point in life where I thought I needed a little more direction. I had left school and didn’t really have too much of an idea of what I wanted to do. Owen said he thought FSD would be able to support me and I’m so pleased I joined FSD.
I hated mainstream school. I wasn’t academic and I just felt I wanted to do things that a person like me could benefit from. I wanted to concentrate on areas I was passionate about because I knew that could help me get closer to the career and life I wanted to have.
FSD helped me a lot to realign myself with my goals and helped me realise and believe they are achievable.
FSD has helped me gain confidence and gave me the chance to show how strong my mentality is. Without coming here, I wouldn’t be on the path I’m on now and wouldn’t be in the position to hopefully get a job in football or personal training.
Without FSD who knows what type of negative place I’d be in right now.
BTEC Level 3 sports diploma, Level 3 personal training and I have now passed my GSCE maths and English. I am now coming to the end of my time with FSD as a student but I’m hoping to follow the same pathway as other former FSD students and become part of the FSD apprenticeship staff.

Harli’s transformation since joining the FSD Academy has been brilliant for the young man. He now has a real understanding of his qualities and how to utilise them to achieve success in life.
All we did was provide him with the structure and gave him the belief to follow what he wanted out of life. We worked on his confidence by creating a bespoke gym programme which he followed daily and as his body, strength and power started to enhance, so did his mindset. His confidence then lifted academically, socially throughout the academy and out on the football pitch. He is now a qualified personal trainer, plays football for our FSD men’s team and is our captain and leader.
Everyone at FSD is really proud of Harli’s journey in the academy and we all hope he continues with us as an employee in the near future.
