I’ve started Go Football Academy with the mission to bridge the gap between grassroots and professional football with an outstanding service of football coaching and consultancy.

Having worked, completed placements, internships and volunteered in numerous roles across football, I have identified a great opportunity to provide a service that I wish I had when I was playing at youth levels.

My knowledge and practice in developing players in to athletes to excel around the pitch ties in well with my passion to develop players mentally and socially, providing a well-rounded service that incorporates all of these areas that are needed to take players to the next level or make players fall back in love with the game of football.

Our service comprises of an initial discussion with player and parent in order to identify what they want to achieve from the sessions. Self-reflection is a really important aspect when looking to develop and often gets overlooked at grassroots level.

From here, we set goals together and decide whether physical coaching, online coaching or both is the best option for you.

Physical coaching allows both player and coach to get to know each other at a much faster rate and provide a faster level of learning and development. Key areas which we focus on are:

  • Mobility
  • Strength
  • Power
  • Speed
  • Recovery (methods)
  • Technical ability

Online coaching allows a much more flexible style of coaching and players will benefit from focussing on:

  • Self-reflection
  • Identifying weaknesses
  • How to improve weaknesses
  • Breaking down barriers to performance
  • How to use data to track performance with wearable technology

If you’re looking to elevate your game, book in a call and we can get started.
