⚽ Premier League Inspires Careers at SCL Stadium ⚽ After weeks of preparation, exploring strengths and skills, CV writing and interview preparation, students from The Wren School attended the Premier League Inspires Careers Event at SCL Stadium where they took part in mock interviews with Microsoft professionals. Alongside the interviews, Microsoft delivered an exciting team challenge where students had to manage a £100,000 football club budget — selecting players and managers while presenting their team, justifying their choices and keeping within budget. Students also enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour of SCL Stadium and had the chance to see the exciting pitch refurbishment taking place. Students initially described feeling nervous and anxious ahead of the experience, but left feeling empowered and proud after receiving supportive feedback and stepping outside of their comfort zones. A huge thank you to Microsoft for their ongoing support and to Rhian Burrell at Aspire for delivering preparation sessions and reflection workshops to help students make the most of this valuable experience. #PLInspires #MoreThanAGame #ReadingFCCT @PLCommunities

WOW—what an achievement! 🎉 We are incredibly proud to share that our Emmbrook School group have been crowned Premier League Inspires Challenge National Champions, competing against 53 clubs from across the country at the National Finals held at Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium. Their inspiring idea began as a colour run featuring powerful mental health quotes on the back of T-shirts and developed into a meaningful campaign supporting young people’s mental wellbeing. From designing shirts worn by first team players on matchday—you may have even seen these shirts during the warm-up of the Reading v Cardiff fixture this month—to creating a standout display that captured attention from clubs nationwide, their journey has been exceptional. The girls have demonstrated outstanding creativity, teamwork, and confidence throughout, and we couldn’t be prouder of what they’ve achieved. A truly well-deserved national win! 👏

So proud of the incredible efforts from the students at Emmbrook School. Reading FC Community Trust is proud to have supported these inspiring young people in turning an idea into real action — promoting confidence, positivity, and mental wellbeing. From classroom concept to matchday impact, this is what the Premier League Inspires Challenge is all about. This is what real impact looks like. #PLInspires #MoreThanAGame #RFCCT #InsideMatters @PLCommunities

From classroom concept to matchday reality. After winning the heat stage of the Premier League Inspires Challenge, The Emmbrook School’s idea was brought to life with support from club partner @Macron. The result: a one-of-a-kind warm-up shirt, created by young people to champion confidence and celebrate body positivity. The men’s first team wore the shirts ahead of Saturday’s fixture against Cardiff City FC — turning a student idea into a powerful matchday moment. From pitchside smiles to pre-match warm-ups, it was a moment to remember. Real ideas. Real platform. Real impact. When young people lead, powerful things happen. #PLInspires #MoreThanAGame #ReadingFC @PLCommunities

🏅 26.2 miles. Two races. One incredible mission. Phil Stafford didn't just run one half marathon, he ran two. First Wokingham, then Reading, clocking a personal best of 1:57:40 along the way. And because of people like you, every step counted for something much bigger than a finishing time. Phil set out to raise £200. You helped him raise £265. That's enough to cover a young person's FA Introduction to Coaching, First Aid, and Safeguarding qualifications, the three certificates that open the door to a career in sport with Reading FC Community Trust. And thanks to one extraordinary donation, we're proud to announce that this opportunity will now carry a name. ✨ Introducing the Charlie Cox Scholarship ✨ Named in honour of Charlie Cox whose generosity made it possible to give a young coach a chance. Phil has given 10 years to this Trust. He's seen what happens when young people get that first opportunity. Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Charlie. And thank you to everyone who donated. If you want to support the next young coach, you can still donate here justgiving.com/page/runforcoa… 💙 Thank you to Macron Sports HUB SLE and Hampshire @macronlse for donating Phil's running top #wokinghamhalfmarathon #readinghalfmarathon
