North Village Community Club (NVCC) and the Bascome Futbol Leadership Academy (BFLA) have announced a major strategic partnership aimed at transforming youth football development in Bermuda.
The collaboration marks a poignant homecoming for Bermuda legend David Bascome, who originally began his decorated football journey as a young player at NVCC.
The partnership is specifically designed to provide long-term structure, sustainability, and growth for youth pathways, with a particular focus on the BFLA Girls Academy. Players will benefit from enhanced coaching, improved facilities, and expanded local and international pathways through BFLA’s growing US network.
“As our program continues to grow, we recognize the importance of evolving to provide the very best opportunities for our players,” said Bascome, following a structural overhaul that includes a newly formed leadership board.
North Village President DevRae Tankard warmly welcomed the reunion, stating: “We’re delighted to have a son of the soil return home to continue the work he has already been doing. His commitment to youth development and leadership aligns perfectly with the values of North Village.”
