Grassroots program
Fall in love with the ball
Positive, age-appropriate sessions where young players move, explore, compete and build confidence.
Purpose before pressure
The grassroots stage builds the foundation for everything that follows. Players need frequent contact with the ball, simple decisions, varied movement and the freedom to try again without fear of making a mistake.
Session priorities
- Comfort using both feet
- Turning, dribbling, stopping and changing direction
- Balance, coordination and movement literacy
- Small-sided games with many touches
- Listening, sharing space and becoming a teammate
Exact age bands, schedules, fees and spaces are confirmed directly by the academy.
