Featuring up to 200 individual players (aged 18-20) from EFL, Premier League and National League clubs, it’s a chance to unearth a gem and start recruiting early from the hundreds determined to find a route back into the professional game.
Registration
Player registration will be via THE SQWAD app. This will streamline the registration process, as well as automate the team sheets and player information brochure for scouts.
Players will also be able to add extra details and video clips to their profile conveniently through the app on their phone, making it easy to build a profile and attract interest from scouts.

SQWAD for Scouts
This year we are asking scouts to register for the event through the SQWAD SCOUT app. Please download the app using the QR code below.
New Users– Download the app and create a new user account. After that you will be prompted to add your scout profile. Once you have done that, please select the registration icon in the lower left corner and complete the registration process. Once at the registration section search for LFE and the 2025 event will show up.
Returning Scouts– For those scouts that participated last year you should already have a SQWAD SCOUT account. So please login and select the registration icon in the lower left corner. After selecting registration, you should see an icon for the 2025 LFE Assessment Trials. Select that event and complete registration.
