Session structure
One hour, split down the middle.
Most youth programs commit to one side — technical work or physical development. Academies deliver both in every session, because neither holds up on its own. Longer bookings of 90 or 120 minutes keep the same split.
First 30 minutes
Athletic training
Built around how a player moves, and scaled to their age. The youngest groups cover the same principles through movement games.
- Speed, acceleration, and change of direction
- Agility and balance under control
- Coordination and body awareness
- Strength and injury prevention for older players
Second 30 minutes
Ball work
Technical repetition first, then the same skill applied against pressure so that it holds up in a match.
- First touch and receiving on both feet
- Dribbling, turning, and 1v1 situations
- Passing weight, striking, and finishing
- Weak-foot repetition in every session
Who we work with
Committed players, at every age.
We look for players with a genuine desire to reach the next level and real enthusiasm for the game. Experience is not a requirement — beginners are welcome, particularly in the younger groups.
A clear target
Club tryouts, a starting position, a school side, an academy place. Something specific they are working toward.
A willingness to work
Weak foot, conditioning, the same movement repeated until it is automatic. The unglamorous half is where players separate.
Genuine enthusiasm
The players who ask for one more repetition at the end of a session. Those are the ones we build for.
