Football

We are excited to deliver entry-level football classes at the Sports Centre. These are open to boys and girls of all ability levels for each age group (U6 – U11). Students will be fully immersed into the sport and learn ways of developing technical and physical characteristics. We will introduce basic tactical concepts and support their all-round mental, emotional and interpersonal growth. As entry-level football classes, all sessions will be delivered in a fun, active and game-oriented format.

U6/ Ages: 3-5        Length: 45 minutes

Students will learn an awareness of their own body in relation to space, to the ball and to team-mates. They will also learn about their capacity to express themselves without fear. Activation of the perceptive senses, development of attention span, listening, understanding are also covered. Base motor skills and coordination, recognising and trusting the coach and working as a team are developed in these sessions.
