Back by popular demand – The Football Academy is returning to CBBC for a second series and you can watch the first episode live at 5:30pm this evening (Mon 9th Oct) or on catch up via iPlayer.

The documentary follows our young Saints players and staff as they go about academy life. Following the success of the first series, we’ve worked with the BBC and film production company Zig Zag to create series two which takes an even deeper look into life with the club.

The first episode will be shown at 5:30pm on CBBC this evening (Mon 9th Oct) - if you’re not free then, it’ll be available for you to catch up on iPlayer when suits you after the programme is finished.
