In these fun football skills sessions we will use a Futsal ball which is a form of indoor football. A Futsal ball is used for all our football skills activities and small sided games. This will help enhance co-ordination, decision making and problem solving abilities due to the design of the ball as its smaller than a standard football and weighted so that is does not bounce and designed for use in a sports hall.

Sessions will be set up to encourage loads of touches of the ball for every child in the class as practise makes a skill permanent. Sessions will be fun with lots of activities that will aim to development movement and football skills as well as agility, balance, co-ordination and speed and confidence with and without the ball.

Classes will be structured and fun and repetition of skillls an important part of classes but loads of different activities will be used to encourage use of all parts of both feet for control, passing, dribbling and shooting. Ball Mastery and moves to beat players as well as developing movement and other areas mentioned above.

All children will get the chance to take part in small sided games of football as part of the coaching sessions on a weekly basis.

Subscription: Subscription/ Membership information:
- Our classes will run for 42 weeks across the 2024 calendar year. This means there will be 10 weekends (spread across the year) we will not run classes. We don’t run to school terms we run based on venue and coach availability and run sessions in every month of the calendar year. - Your monthly payment of £28 is calculated by splitting the overall annual cost of coaching for your child (42 weeks @ £8 a session) over 12 equal payments which then results in a £28 per month membership fee. Your child will be auto-enrolled onto our registers every month in a rolling-contract manner. Membership fees are paid on the 1st of every month. - If you join mid-month or trial expires mid-month, we may add a pro-rata’d covering payment to your first month's payment as a member. This will be to cover sessions delivered before the 1st of the month post trial . Consideration will also be given to the point of year you have joined as a member as well as date you joined and when you completed your trial period before covering payment is added.
