In this age group, the focus shifts towards the tactical side of the game, aiming to sharpen decision-making skills and deepen game intelligence.
We encourage our players to think independently during games, fostering their problem-solving abilities and critical thinking. These skills are invaluable both on the football field and in life.
In this age group, we continue to place a strong emphasis on individual ball mastery skills. Just like any craft, it's essential to consistently fine-tune and hone these abilities.
As we prepare our players for the next phase of their journey, aiming for levels like NPL or higher, we strive to shape them into individuals who represent themselves excellently. Our goal is for them to embody confidence yet maintain humility, possess a high level of ball mastery skills, and demonstrate a profound understanding and intelligence of the game.
In this concluding phase of the Pro Soccer School skill development pathway, our players emerge as not only outstanding footballers but also as exemplary role models for the younger ones, leading by example. Though still in the SAP phase of their football journey, they exhibit a strong understanding of game intelligence in the 11 v 11 format. This readies them for their next career phase: playing 11 v 11 on a full-size field at the highest possible level.
Players convert past learning into practical strategy, analysing and engaging with the game intricately and methodically.
Introducing more sophisticated techniques and cultivating ambidexterity in players, ensuring they can competently play with either foot. Instilling the confidence and skill necessary for players to effectively challenge an opponent one-on-one.
We are committed to nurturing players who are courteous, present themselves well, and possess the discipline to overcome challenges. We foster an environment that values compassion, humility, and a deep-seated passion for supporting their teammates.
We emphasise the importance of our players taking responsibility for their choices, both in play and in life. Our training develops their ability to think and lead like a captain, with a clear understanding of their roles on the pitch and the execution to match.
In these sessions, we focus on maximum ball rolling time for each child ensuring the player can gain as many touches and have as much fun as they possibly can have with the ball in the allotted timeframe. We give each individual their own ball for as much of the session as possible , we want the players to learn their ball mastery skills as quickly as they can and by having their own ball for much of the session enhances the outcomes and speeds up the process.
Quite simply when a child can execute the fundamentals of the game along with exciting skills they have more fun and enjoyment when it comes to game time.
Each child gets lots of time with the ball during each session to maximise learning and to build gross and fine motor skills.
In our sessions it is estimated that each individual will get anywhere between
500 – 1000 touches on the ball which elevates the opportunity to develop quicker.
Fun is central to everything we do at pro soccer school. We create a fun environment for children to explore a range of new skills through movement and activity
