Rochdale Football Club is still on the look out for local families to provide a safe, warm and comfortable environment for their 16-18 year old apprentices who have moved away from home to pursue a
football career.
The role of the Landlord/Landlady is a fundamental part of the young person’s Career, Educational, Social and Emotional Development, both on and off the football pitch. By providing a spacious and
private bedroom, clean and hygienic washing facilities, rounded and healthy meals, regular clean and fresh laundry, as well as a good level of modern communication and leisure amenities, you will be a major part of the young people’s lives whether they make a career in football or not.
The role is all year round and runs from the last week in June until the middle of May, and is usually 5 nights a week as players will usually go home on Saturday afternoons/evenings depending on
whether the first team are at home, and if their family home is in reasonable travelling distance.
Payment for the agreed contract will be £16.00 per day per apprentice (it is usually good practice, and financially beneficial, for a minimum of 2 apprentices to be housed together).
THIS INCOME IS NOT CLASSED AS EARNINGS FOR TAX PURPOSES.
All accommodation must be a NON SMOKING and NON PET environment.
Full training and support will be given.
