FOOTBALL ACADEMY Blue U12’s Session

This mixed ability football session is designed specifically for Blue group players which are age grouped as U12’s who are looking to develop their technical ability, improve game understanding and build confidence in more competitive and game-realistic situations. Sessions are tailored to this age group, with experienced coaches delivering engaging, challenging and enjoyable practices that support both individual development and team play. Players will be grouped appropriately on the day to ensure everyone is working at the right level and progressing at their own pace. The focus for this group is on refining core technical skills such as dribbling, passing, receiving, shooting and first touch, while introducing more advanced elements such as speed of play, decision making, movement off the ball and awareness in game situations. Players will be challenged through a mix of technical drills, skill-based exercises, 1v1 and 2v2 challenges, and small sided games. These activities are designed to increase intensity, encourage quick thinking and help players apply their skills under pressure in realistic match scenarios. Our aim is simple: fun, progression focused coaching that helps every player leave with improved skills, greater confidence and a bigger understanding of the game. Each session will take place on the Duke of Kent School Astro and grass pitches, providing a high quality environment for both technical development and match play.
