Train
We believe that to make training effective it has to be relevant, realistic and challenging. That's why we aim to use competition, games and high intensity exercises whenever possible. We avoid bus-stop drills and ensure our players have a ball at their feet as much as we can. Our coaches operate on a ball-rolling time of 70:30 which means less time listening to the coach and more time practicing the game we love.
Learn
Students learn best when the things they do are memorable, fun and engaging. We want all our players to come away from every session having learnt something new; whether that be a rule, a tactic, a skill, or a technique. We strive to create a positive atmosphere which is inclusive, energetic and above all conducive to learning.
Play
We understand that players love playing the game and trying to apply the new skills that they have learnt into a match. That's why we ensure all our sessions involve a games4understanding approach. We view match scenarios as an extension of their learning environment and will use a range of coaching techniques and communication devices to help facilitate their on-going development and progress.
