Park View AFC U21's form a vital bridge in the male football pathway at Park View Academy of Sport, offering a high-performance platform for emerging talent to compete in the Durham County U21 Floodlit Midweek League. The team provides a senior football experience for players aged 16–19, allowing them to test themselves in a structured, competitive adult league while continuing their full-time education.

​

The squad is composed predominantly of full-time students from the Academy’s Men’s Football Programme and aiming to transition into Northern League or higher-level football. Playing midweek under floodlights, the U21's replicate the demands of the senior game, helping players build resilience, tactical maturity, and physical conditioning. Players benefit from access to UEFA A and B licensed coaches, individualised strength and conditioning programmes, video analysis, and professional-standard facilities. The environment is designed to mirror professional football setups, ensuring players are fully supported in both their development and progression.

​

More than just a stepping stone, Park View AFC U21 Team is a proving ground—offering ambition-driven athletes the opportunity to grow, compete, and prepare for the next stage in their football careers, whether that be within the senior game, professional trials, or university football.
