The short answer: A strong football vacancy is specific: it states the position, level, age range, location and what you offer. Clarity attracts well-matched applicants and filters out the rest, saving everyone time.
What every vacancy should include
- Position and the role within your system.
- Level and age range.
- Location and any travel expectations.
- Trial details or how to apply.
- What you offer — development, game time, pathway.
Write for the player, not the club
Players respond to clarity and respect. Explain what success looks like and what they can gain. Avoid vague language like "talented players wanted" — be precise about who fits.
