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.
Some youngsters take a bit longer to grasp the game's basics, and our one-on-one football training creates a nurturing atmosphere for their improvement. It's a frequent observation that as children become more proficient in the basics, their enjoyment of football increases. We acknowledge that each player has their unique developmental pace. Personalised one-on-one sessions allow players to address specific areas of their game, assisting them in overcoming obstacles in their football journey.
Calling all WMF fans and potential members, let's sprinkle some magic on your child's special day! Imagine the joy when their treasured coach joins the birthday bash! We're the masters of unforgettable parties - explore our exciting birthday packages and create a day your little one will cherish forever. Our coaches? They're the true superheroes!
At We Make Footballers, we have an unwavering belief in the excellence of our school football coaching programme, which we consider to be among the best in the country. Operating an outstanding coaching initiative outside of educational institutions provides us with access to some of the top coaches in the United Kingdom.
Furthermore, we insist on an intensive training programme for all our coaches to ensure that quality consistently meets the highest standards.

We Make Footballers: Isleworth Girls was established in 2017, with its roots established in the FA Wildcats programme. From this, we were able to set up a group of motivated, enthusiastic and keen young female footballers who would progress to help launch WMF Girls.
At We Make Footballers, we run a girls' football programme which consists of weekly sessions during the school term time and holiday camps during the half-term weeks to optimise our player’s development. Our girl’s football programmes are held in very high regard with a dedicated, all-female coaching team-leading and inspiring the next generation. Our female coaches have played from the amateur level to being a part of professional clubs across a range of positions to ensure we are inclusive of every girl’s needs and desires.
Our values are fun, safety, passion and development and we use these to create the most inclusive environment for our girls to facilitate their learning. Each week we pose a different theme to our players and structure our sessions to maximise fun and development. At WMF we take pride in our girl’s programme and put in the maximum time, effort and resources to ensure its success in providing an opportunity for girls to play football.
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.
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.
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.
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!

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