TYFA Women

Philippine international footballers, Phil and James Younghusband established The Younghusband Football Academy in Alabang in 2010 under the name "Younghusband Football Academy, Inc.". becoming the first football academy in the country. The academy started a partnership with Chelsea F.C. in 2012 which provided instructors for the academy. The first classes were held at the Evia Football Field in Daang Reyna, Las Piñas. By May 2012, the academy registered with the Pag-IBIG Fund. The Younghusbands initially had difficulty in operating the academy due to the relative lack of popularity of football then. The duo initially conducted programs within Metro Manila but later also reach to localities outside the metropolis such as Cavite, Bacolod, Legaspi, Tarlac and Palawan.
