Celtic FC Partnership
Sacred Heart College is partnered with Scottish football powerhouse, Celtic Football Club. Given both Celtic FC and our College were founded by Marist Brothers only ten years apart in 1887 and 1897 respectively, the partnership aims to build on shared values bestowed upon us by our founders.
Celtic Soccer Academy provides year round support to the College through the sharing of curriculums, monthly mentoring of coaching staff and delivery of coaching camps and education clinics. A key element of the partnership is the opportunity for selected students to travel to Glasgow and train with the prestigious Celtic Soccer Academy. This immersive experience not only hones their soccer skills under the guidance of expert coaches but also allows them to gain invaluable insights into the professional sports environment.
