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.
A few children may require more time to master the fundamental elements of the game, and our individual football coaching establishes a more supportive backdrop for their advancement. It's commonly noted that children find greater joy in football as they become more proficient in the basics. We recognise that every player's development unfolds at their own pace. One-on-one sessions enable players to focus on particular aspects of their game, helping them overcome challenges in their football voyage.
Hey there, WMF fans and potential recruits, let's add a touch of sparkle to your child's special day! Just imagine their excitement when their beloved coach swings by the birthday bash! We're the pros at creating memories that last - explore our fantastic birthday offers and make your child's day an absolute hit. Our coaches? They're the true MVPs!
We at We Make Footballers maintain a strong belief in the quality of our school football coaching programme, which we consider to be one of the nation's best. Conducting a top-of-the-line coaching initiative outside schools affords us access to some of the UK's top coaches.
Additionally, we implement a comprehensive training regimen that all our coaches must complete to ensure that quality consistently meets the highest standards.

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.
