How it works
Ryan's Football Connect is a small, hand-curated directory of semi-professional football players. Everything runs through Ryan, who personally vets every profile and every enquiry.
For managers and scouts
Browsing is free. No account, no signup. Just browse the directory.
Found a player you like?Use the enquiry form on their page to tell Ryan about your club and what you're looking for.
Ryan vets the fit.If he thinks the player suits your team, he'll arrange a direct introduction. If not, he'll let you know.
For players
Listings are paid. Each player profile is on the site for a fixed period for a fixed fee (e.g. £X for 3 months — get in touch for current pricing).
Every profile is reviewed. Ryan personally approves all new listings to keep the quality high — there are no junk accounts.
You stay in control. Managers contact Ryan, not you. He only passes on enquiries he thinks are a real fit.
Why semi-pro?
The semi-professional level — below the elite full-time leagues but well above casual — is where most players struggle to get noticed. Ryan built up his network during his own playing career and started informally matchmaking. This site is the formal version of that.
