EVERY CHILD MATTERS

I believe that players should be treated individually. Each and every person that arrives at FutAcademy deserves the opportunity to learn, experience and enjoy playing football. It is our obligation as coaches to give players the tools to play the game we love and push them to reach their potential. All players should have the opportunity to play matches and everyone deserves the chance to be coached.
Our team of coaches follow curriculum guidelines designed on a European coaching model whereby the individual player is at the forefront of the session. Individual technical coaching leads to more gifted players who in turn learn tactics at an appropriate age to put into practice their knowledge, expertise and abilities.

Philosophy Model
INDIVIDUAL PLAYER DEVELOPMENT

It is important to understand that players develop at different rates and that everyone is an individual. ALL players that attend FutAcademy classes will follow our Philosophy Diagram (right) and depending on their age will focus on different areas.

The diagram depicts what competitive format players should be playing, whether they should be learning techniques or tactics, whether they should be focused on development or winning and above all ALL PLAYERS should be sufficiently challenged and motivated to work.

Arsene Wenger

You can tell if a player will become a professional from the age of 14 years.

By that age if any player is not proficient technically then they will not become a professional player. Therefore upto the age of 14 years, coaching should be heavily focused on technique rather than tactical or other conceptual areas.
