Back with the Addicks.

After a challenging season behind the scenes, the Andrade Twins have reported back for pre-season with Chariton Athletic's U21s, joining a new-look group with plenty to prove heading into 2026/27.

Last season still brought valuable experiences. From representing Chariton in the JPL, to gaining important senior exposure on dual registration with Dulwich Hamlet, both players continued to take steps forward in different environments.

Now back in red, the focus turns to the season ahead - with the PGA League, PGA National Cup and FA Women's Natiorial League Cup all offering the chance to compete, develop, and test themselves again
against strong opposition.

A new season. A new group. Another opportunity to push on.

The Andrade Twins are back with Charlton.

Say hello to our new batch of graduates.

With the 2026/27 season around the corner, Emel Huseyin and Grace Craven will transition into the Main Roster.

Both joined the Academy while navigating that important jump from youth and academy football into established senior first-team environments. Since then, they've done more than settle.

Emel has continued to grow at Hashtag United, ending the season as the club's Player of the Year. Grace has taken on greater responsibility at Oxford City, stepping into the role of club captain and leading by example.

Their graduation is a reflection of their growth, consistency, maturity and the impact they now have at their respective clubs.

This is what the PH1 Academy pathway was built for.

From PH1 Academy to PH1 FC Main Roster.
Congratulations, Emel & Grace

A few familiar PH1 faces are locked in for 2026/27, and stepping into the new season in fresh colours 🧼

The performance tracker doesn't start until competitive football kicks off, but the kit watch is already underway 👀

Most of the group are already back for pre-season, the UK Is currently moving like a sauna, and competitive football is starting to creep back into view.

Until then... one last look at the PH1 FC summer files.

Having reported back into training with Portsmouth Women this week, Big has had time to reset this past month and is determined to help drive her Portsmouth side back into the Women's Professional Game.

The club announced that the women's section will maintain their professional status, which is key, and with strong competition at the top end of the table from FAWNL Cup winners AFC Bournemouth as well as ambitious sides in Oxford United it'll be a battle to clinch that Championship spot, something Ange will be familiar with having spent 3 seasons playing at this level with MK Dons and Rugby Borough respectively.

Officially embedded into the family.

Dulcie Galbally, Skye Burton, Lily-Ann Beckingham, welcome to the 🫡

It's a Big Ange birthday today.
Happy birthday to you!

The Main Roster retained list has been confirmed following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Paige Hoile joined PH1 during a real transitional period for the group.

She came into PH1 in February 2022 while still deep into Year 11, and in many ways her arrival helped spark a shift in direction. As the existing PH1 roster had grown in age and maturity in their footballing journeys, bringing in Paige - then a Denham United player preparing to leave girls' football with an impressive goals tally - gave PH1 the opportunity to reset its storytelling and begin documenting a new generation of players making the transition from girls' football into the senior game.

Over the last four and a half years, Paige's journey has not been straightforward, but there have still been some important highs along the way.

After a turbulent spell with West Ham, where opportunities were not always consistent but she still managed to make an impact when called upon, Paige went on to join Oxford United. There, she became part of a treble-winning side that lifted the Oxfordshire County Cup, the FAWNL Reserve Southern Division title unbeaten, and the FAWNL Reserve Cup. In doing so, she became one of only a small number of players in PH1 history - alongside Caitlin Crierie and Poppy Dearlove - to win a national competition while representing PH1 FC.

She would later get her break in National League football with QPR, but the last 12 months have been frustrating, with injuries disrupting her momentum and run of games with her last appearance coming in a Plate final loss to Middlesbrough at St. George's Park.

Paige was the first, and we'll never forget that.

Not every transition is smooth, and not every career is linear, but Paige has played a very important role in PH1 history, especially in the story of the PH1 Academy. Her place in that story is secure.

Alongside her football, Paige has also been working to make a name for herself in media production, having graduated from the Global Academy. So whether her next chapter is on the pitch, behind the camera, or elsewhere entirely, we wish her nothing but the very best.

Thank you, Paige. You'll always be remembered as a key part of PH1 history.
