The Bantams are launching a second series of inner-city trials later this month.
More than 200 players took part when the trials were first held last year, with six youngsters earning a chance in the club’s centre of excellence programme.
The three-day sessions, co-ordinated by City’s youth development skills coach Alan Nevison, will take place at Goals Soccer Centre at Hanson School between July 27-29.
Age groups from under-seven up to under-16s will be involved from within Bradford’s inner-city areas.
Nevison said: “The (first) trials were a fantastic success and we know there is talent in abundance out there.
“We want all players of school age to come and show us their football talents and we, as a club, will provide them with the opportunity to develop.
“Bradford is a mass populated city and we cannot get to see every potential footballer. These inner-city trials give every boy the opportunity to show us they have the potential to become a professional player.”
Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Successful applicants will receive a return e-mail with the additional details for the time and day to attend. City are also looking to attract a sponsor for the trials.
Parents of any youngsters interested in attending should register by e-mailing bcfcinnercitytrials@live.co.uk.
