Swansea City Academy player plaques. The years
that shaped them

Year by year, season by season, build a lasting record of their football journey. Each plaque is personalised, club-branded and handcrafted — part of a series that runs from U8s through to U21s, before connecting into the Legacy Programme for first-team milestones.

Season by season,
the story builds

Joining Swansea City Academy is a moment of pride for every player and family. The Academy Programme gives families a lasting way to remember each season of their child’s journey. Football boots wear out, kits change every year, and memories fade. Each plaque creates a permanent record of the seasons, teams and achievements that make up a player’s academy career.

The seasonal plaque

One per player, per season, in home, away or third kit. Composite aluminium, raised UV print, supplied in a presentation box. It is the quiet backbone of the collection: the same object, returning each year, marking that the season happened and that it mattered.

Most families keep it simple and order the current season. Some choose to add the seasons that came before, so the shelf starts complete rather than half-finished.

More than one season

One plaque captures a moment. A collection captures a journey. As players progress through the academy, families can build a complete record of their time representing Swansea City Academy — a unique keepsake that grows with them year after year.

Each plaque is one A4, with the option to add extra A5 copies for the family. Additional copies are popular with grandparents, relatives or separated households — ensuring everyone who has supported the player can share in the achievement.

About earlier seasons

No season is out of reach

Start with this year, or fill the whole shelf back to a player’s first. Backdating is built into the order above.

There is no cut-off date
Any season can be made, however far back it goes. Seasons from before the programme even launched are no different to order.
Made to the same standard
A 2019/20 plaque is the same metal, the same raised print and the same presentation box as this season’s. The shelf stays consistent.
Catch up at your own pace
Some families complete the run in one order. Others add a season at a time. Both are fine, and the price per past A4 season stays £90.

Every plaque
tells part of the story

The best moment is not the order. It is the box opening, and a season turned into something that stays.

Questions

It is a way for families to build a lasting record of their child’s academy journey. Each season, families can order a personalised Swansea City Academy plaque through this page — handcrafted on composite aluminium, personalised with the player’s name, squad number and kit, and delivered in a presentation box. The programme is run by GAROE and offered to Swansea City AFC academy families. It is not an official club product or endorsement.
Any season, with no cut-off date. You can order the current 2025/26 plaque, and you can backdate as many earlier seasons as you like, including seasons from before the programme launched. Each past A4 season is £90.
The A4 plaque is the main product at £90, available in home, away or third kit. An A5 is £75 as a family add-on. The A5 is only available alongside an A4 order and cannot be bought on its own. There is one A4 per player per season. Each one is a personalised youth football plaque carrying the player’s name, squad number and chosen kit.
A seasonal plaque is the main A4 product — one per player per season, personalised with their name, squad number and chosen kit. Additional A5 copies can be ordered alongside any A4 to share with family members. The A5 is a smaller version of the same plaque and is only available as part of an A4 order, not on its own.
Every Season is an annual plaque at £90 per year. Your 2025/26 plaque is produced immediately when you start it. Before each new season, we send a reminder email with a link to confirm the player’s kit choice, squad number and any updated details — so the next plaque is always accurate before it goes into production.
Yes. Backdating is built in. There is no cut-off date, and every past season is made to the same standard as the current one, the same metal, the same raised print and the same presentation box. Each past A4 season is £90, with the A5 add-on at £75.
Each academy player plaque is handcrafted on composite aluminium over roughly four weeks, then delivered seated in its own presentation box, ready to give or display.
Order on this page. Enter the player’s name, squad number and kit, choose the season or the Every Season option, add any earlier seasons you would like to backdate, then review and confirm. Production starts once the order is placed, and your academy player plaque is delivered in its presentation box.
No. This is a GAROE recognition programme offered to Swansea City AFC academy families. It is not an official Swansea City product and is not a club partnership or endorsement. The plaques are personalised for academy players, and ordering is handled directly by GAROE rather than by the club.
