Junior Football Training Services

We Make Footballers academies offer weekly football training, holiday camps, 1-on-1 coaching, birthday parties and school programmes – helping children of all abilities develop skills, confidence and a lifelong love of the game.

Join our weekly football training sessions designed for all skill levels and ages.

Our weekly group training is the perfect foundation for players with ambitions to join local grassroots clubs or professional academies. With a proven track record of more than 200 players signed professionally, your child will be well on their way.

Your child's comfort is our top priority, which is why we provide both indoor and outdoor fields. During winter, we emphasize technique training in confined spaces, which will be useful on larger fields in summer. We have a comprehensive one-year syllabus, but you can join our flexible weekly group training or block sessions based on your schedule.

Personalised and high energy football training by a professional coach just for your child.

Some children take a bit longer to grasp the rudiments of the game than others, and our one-on-one football coaching provides a more nurturing setting for their development. It's a common observation that children derive greater enjoyment from football as they become more skilled in the basics. We acknowledge that each player has their unique developmental pace. Personalised one-on-one sessions allow players to focus on specific facets of their game, helping them overcome obstacles in their football journey.

We Make Footballers have been running for the past 10 years. Having had great success in London, We Make Footballers have now become a football franchise coaching over 4,000 children every week across over 46 venues.

Our academy has fully qualified FA coaches and the focus is on playing football in a fun and safe environment. We cater for all abilities, helping beginners to master the basics and grow in confidence and the more advanced to fine-tune their games.

Our sessions are held indoors in amazing top-quality sports halls during the colder months and outdoors during the Spring/Summer.

For those hoping to make it into a professional academy, We Make Footballers Camden can even help with that. Some of our coaches have links with professional clubs and if a player is good enough, they can recommend they go forward for a trial. If a player isn’t quite at that level yet, then the coaches can help to work on the areas that need improvement to get them there. Some players will just enjoy our football session, make friends and have fun alongside developing their football.

Why do Children & Parents in Camden Love our Training?

Improved football technique

We break down the football fundamentals in a simple and engaging way. Then, our 1-on-1 drills give your child the time to reinforce what they've learnt at their own pace.

Teammates to mates

We only have 10 children per coach to ensure high quality training and the chance for your child to build friendships. We also have strict anti-bullying policies so they will always feel safe.

Healthy children are happier children

Exercise is best when it doesn't feel like exercise. Our weekly football training and holiday development camps are fun, but also boost your child's fitness, speed, movement, and agility too.

A real brain booster (that's smart!)

It's not just physical and social skills, our unique sessions help with cognitive function too. You will see your child develop better concentration, learning, listening, and decision-making skills week after week.

Both of my children love their sessions! During their one hour they practise a lot. The children all have their own ball and they all join in at the same time with different fun games. They also learn how to be a good team player. The program and the coaches are brilliant!

Frequently asked questions

Are you looking for a football training academy to partner with?

How it works: We provide players and teams for local grassroot teams to compete at a competitive grassroots level. The partnered club recommend WMF to players who aren’t quite ready to play at a grassroots level side (players may be too young or new to football).

What safety procedures are in place and are your coaches DBS checked?

All of our coaches are fully DBS checked and at least one member of staff on site will be first aid trained.

How do I get my child in shape for football?

Getting your child into shape for football involves a combination of physical activity, skill development and a balanced diet. Here are some steps you can take to help prepare your child for football: encourage your child to take part in activities that can improve cardiovascular endurance, such as running, cycling or swimming. To be a successful football player, a child will need to work on their speed, agility and endurance. Encourage your child to eat a balanced diet and drink plenty of water. It's also important for your child to rest and recover between exercise. You could take your child to take part in local football training sessions and speak to the coach about what they think your child needs to develop. Your may also want to consider shifting the language from 'getting your child into shape' to 'helping your child lead an active and healthy lifestyle'. Football can be a great vehicle to help make this change.

When should girls start playing football?

Girls can start playing football at the same age as boys, typically around 4 or 5 years old. There is no specific age restriction or limitation based on gender when it comes to playing football. Football is a sport that can be enjoyed by both girls and boys and now there are increasing opportunities for girls to participate in football training and football matches where they can meet new friends, develop their football skills and find a love for the game. It is important to find a football environment which is inclusive and supportive, where girls feel welcomed and encouraged to participate in football.
