Our Vision:
To always deliver football sessions in a fun, safe and positive environment.
We will develop all players individual skills and abilities while continually building their confidence, knowledge and understanding, including what teamwork means and how important it is.
We will inspire and respect all players and ensure enjoyment is at the forefront of what we do.
Our Coaching Philosophy :
*To play a variety of football styles to support a players learning. From playing through the thirds to spotting different passes during a match-for example, getting in behind the opposition very quickly. *We will coach in possession, out of possession and the transition of play in between.
*Inspire players of all abilities, ensuring they know mistakes are 100% ok and always welcome-we learn from them.
*Fun arrival sessions with realistic game scenarios through to fun small sided games.
*Encourage decision making in a pressure free environment. We let our players play.

What a great football school/club.
My son had tried a couple of others and just did not like them. He feels welcome and has gained confidence at footy school. ***** has progressed massively. I didn't think football was gonna be for my son based on passed experience with other clubs.... However..... I was wrong!!!
I would recommend footy school to all abilities. Chris the manager doesn't complicate the skills and games, he keeps it fun but with the same high end results.
A very pleased mother, an extremely happy son and an ecstatic father.
Thanks footy school & stopsley sharks fc x

***** is really enjoying the sessions. I have to say I'm really impressed by the skilled way all three of you help and encourage him - that specific praise you give is very motivating for him. And as a teacher myself, I'm really struck by the way you guys manage and get the most out of the sessions - very impressive!
