Skills Development

WHAT YOUR CHILD WILL LEARN.

We develop the whole child โ€” not just their football ability. Every session builds skills they'll carry for life.

Technical Skills

We teach basics like passing and shooting, reinforcing them through 1-on-1 practice with peers. This comprehensive approach cultivates fundamental skills while also fostering confidence and decision-making.

Social Skills

Our weekly training sessions have small groups of 10 children per coach. This ensures personalized attention, quality coaching, and the opportunity to form lasting friendships without the pressure of a large group.

Physical Skills

We focus on more than just football skills; our sessions also develop versatile physical abilities applicable to various sports. Improved physical fitness, speed, strength, and agility are key outcomes.

Psychological Skills

Our distinctive weekly training sessions contribute to cognitive development. Witness tangible progress in areas such as listening, concentration, confidence, and decision-making.

Our Training Style

WHAT A SESSION LOOKS LIKE.

Age Appropriate Training

Age Appropriate Training

Training is tailored to each child's age and ability level. We want to inspire children to love the game. We want them to push their parents to bring them to football! For our older players and more talented players, we aim to challenge them without harming their confidence.

"My 7 year old son Ray has really enjoyed his classes with Frazer and the team. Good skills, good fun and plenty of learning taking place."

"I was so impressed with how it is run. The coaches are fun, clear with their directions and patient, I really liked the fact that they showed the kids how to do things, rather than just telling them. My little boy is quite nervous in group settings and always wants to leave halfway through. The same happened at this club however, one of the coaches Calvin took a bit of time to talk through his worries with him, explained what the rest of the lesson was going to be like and he actually got back involved which never happens! Thank you so much! Would recommend!"
