The Shield-Chelsea talent search entered its second stage on Saturday, and 20 players were selected during the trials held at Alexander Sports Club in Harare.

The initiative is sponsored by Unilever under the Shield deodorant brand and will see one lucky Zimbabwean getting a once in a lifetime opportunity of flying to London, England.

There was an overwhelming response as participants from in and around the capital attended the trials. The selected 20 players will join another group of 15 finalists from Bulawayo and go to a one-week boot camp session in July.

After the boot camp, three coaches from Chelsea Football Club will assess the players in Harare on the 25th and pick the final winner.
