About The Event
WHAT IS THE
NXT LVL COMBINE?
The PLYRMATCH NXT LVL Combine is a professional 5-day football event taking place in North West England in June 2026. It brings together serious players from across the world who are looking to break into paid football in the UK.
Players train twice a day under UEFA A Licensed coaches, are analysed using VEO camera technology and GPS data, and get the chance to showcase their ability in a dedicated showcase game — all with scouts, coaches, and managers from Step 1 to Step 6 of the non-league pyramid in attendance.
"Most trial events give players one game and expect instant performance. We give them 5 days to build chemistry, get coaching, and genuinely be seen."
Why We're Running This
At PLYRMATCH, we've seen too many talented players fall through the cracks — players who've played professionally overseas, or at a high level in their home country, but don't have the contacts or knowledge to navigate the UK football system.
The NXT LVL Combine was created to solve that problem — connecting and reconnecting players with clubs, rebuilding pathways, and bringing the football community together under one roof.
With only 20 places available, every player who attends is serious, prepared, and genuinely motivated to find a club.
More Than A Sponsorship
GIVING TALENT
A REAL CHANCE
The NXT LVL Combine isn't just a football event — it's a community initiative. We believe talent should never be held back by finances.
A portion of every sponsorship goes directly into a Player Opportunity Fund — used to subsidise or fully cover the cost of attendance for talented players who simply don't have the financial means to participate.
Your brand doesn't just get visibility. It helps connect and reconnect players with clubs, rebuilds careers, and puts your business at the heart of something genuinely meaningful in the football community.
Connecting Players & Clubs
We bring scouts, managers, and players together in one environment — rebuilding connections and creating new pathways into UK football.
Player Opportunity Fund
Sponsorship dollars directly help talented players who can't afford to attend — giving them the exposure and opportunity they deserve.
A Football Community
This combine is built around the belief that football should be accessible. Your sponsorship helps make that a reality.
