Trial with Nova Star SC

Your talent. Our pitch in Dubai.

Nova Star SC competes in the UAE Football Association Second Division with a first team of players from 13 nations — and we're always looking for the next one.

We know that travelling to another country for a trial is a big step. So for the international players we invite, the club takes care of the practical side: where you stay and how you get around. All you have to think about is your football.

  • Accommodation

    Somewhere to stay for your trial, arranged by the club.

  • Transport

  • Our coaching staff

  • A real pathway
