12 to 16 year old programs

A scenario we see all too often. . .

During this critical period, we often see children withdrawing from sports, especially when they sense that they may not make it to the top level. This disenchantment can be traced back to just a handful of coaches’ decisions not to include them in teams, leading to a loss of interest in the game and the pursuit of other pastimes.

Our mission is to inspire and mentor children at this juncture to understand that not reaching the apex doesn’t preclude a rewarding career in football. It’s a time when they’re beginning to forge their own paths and could easily be swayed into less desirable choices.

Football offers a constructive outlet for maintaining discipline, engaging positively with peers, and feeling part of a community. We believe that by bolstering the grassroots level, we can make the sport more appealing for young players to remain engaged, helping them to continue their personal and athletic growth in a positive and nurturing environment.

Primary Focus Growth Areas

TACTICAL SKILLS

Our approach at this stage pivots towards tactical mastery, building upon the solid foundation of technical skills our players have developed. By focusing on game strategies and team dynamics, we enhance their ability to make intelligent plays, leading to a more impactful and enjoyable football experience. The benefit? Players who are not just skilled, but also tactically astute, ready to excel in the strategic complexities of the game.

TACTICAL ELEMENTS

We elevate our training by honing in on tactical understanding, leveraging cutting-edge video technology to provide a visual and interactive learning experience. This approach deepens our players' grasp of game strategy, allowing them to see and analyse plays as they unfold. The benefit is a more informed and insightful player who can apply sophisticated tactics on the field, leading to a marked improvement in game performance.

REALISING GOALS THROUGH TACTICS

We meticulously craft our team's tactics by establishing clear concepts and objectives that align with our game model. This methodical approach ensures that every player is synchronised in their efforts, working collaboratively towards our common goal. The benefit is a cohesive team performance, where each player's actions are part of a larger, well-orchestrated plan, leading to a more strategic and successful outcome on the field.

COHESIVE GAME DECISION STRUCTURE

Our training sessions are carefully designed to create a team-centered environment, where each player's unique skills benefit the collective unit. We emphasise tactical formations, precise positioning, and coordinated player movement. This approach emphasises individual contributions within the team and enhances on-field synergy, resulting in a unified team with strategically utilised strengths to boost performance.

WINNING ATTITUDE

We dedicate our efforts to crafting specific actions and strategies that define our team's style of play and how to effectively counter our opponents. By doing this, we ensure that every player understands their role in the team's collective approach and is equipped to adapt to the challenges posed by the opposition. The advantage is a versatile, well-prepared team capable of executing our game plan while also being resilient and adaptive in the face of varying competitive scenarios.​

Our goal is to demonstrate to these young athletes that soccer is more than just a game or a path to a professional player; it's a platform for personal development, healthy social interaction, and community engagement. By nurturing their love for the game, we help guide them towards making positive life choices. Soccer becomes a tool for growth, learning, and belonging – a powerful antidote to the distractions and challenges they face during this formative stage of their lives.

What your teen will learn

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.

Enrolling your teenager with Pro Soccer School can thus be a highly rewarding decision, benefiting their physical and mental well-being, social skills, and personal development.

Spark Young Minds

We incorporate as much fun as possible into these sessions using themes inside of the games to spark imagination and creativity

Vital skills

We believe that ball mastery and 1-v-1s are the most important skills to be learning at this age
"It goes without saying that to be a great football player you have to be a master of the football, which is our main focus when it comes to football skill development."

What are our sessions like?

Each teen 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 teenagers to explore a range of new skills through movement and activity
