Following the recent acquisition by Link Group of Capita Asset Services, both the JFA Centre of Excellence and the JFA Player Development Centre, have been renamed. The Centres will now be known as the ‘JFA Link Asset Services Centre of Excellence’ and the ‘JFA Link Asset Services Player Development Centre’.
Anthony O'Keeffe, Chief Executive Officer of Link Asset Services commented "Our involvement with the Centre of Excellence and the Player Development Centre goes back to 2006, and we’re delighted and proud to see how the Centres have helped to develop Jersey's young footballers. Although our name is changing, our commitment to the Centres and footballers in Jersey is as strong as ever."
John McMurtrie, Founder and Managing Director of Link Group visited the Jersey office recently and met with Paul Renton and Brian Oliver from the JFA, to officially hand over the newly branded Link Asset Services football kit.
Brian Oliver, Jersey FA Football Development Manager said "The support we have had over the last 10 years, has assisted us greatly in providing a high quality programme of coaching and games for boys and girls in Jersey. We are extremely pleased that Link Group wish to continue this successful partnership and we look forward to working together in the future".
