OUR STORY

Shaping the Future of Youth Football Since 2019

Founded in 2019 by Sophie Perry, a former professional footballer with an extensive career including teams like Chelsea and Brighton & Hove Albion, and international play for both England and the Republic of Ireland, Piing Football Academy has established itself as Pattaya’s first and original girls' football academy.
