Coaching Sessions and Purpose

When we play a full length game, in 90 minutes we touch and handle the ball on average for no more than 2 minutes. It's hard to learn something in 2 minutes. Our 2 hour sessions are the equivalent of more than 30 games!

During the lessons we'll do a lot of footwork to develop first touch, trap, pass, heading, juggling and shooting. Particular exercises will be done to improve strength and agility through stretching and fitness. We'll develop one topic every session.

In short, you'll become A BETTER SOCCER PLAYER.

Sessions are normally split into 3 different groups based on size/age.

Fair Play Soccer School is based on the Scottish Football Association Concept of Coaching and other International Football Associations.

We strive to ensure that our coaching includes the following:

• Individual Correction
• Always Fun
• Good Demonstrations
• Skill Development
• Preparation (Attractive Layout)
• Time to practice
• Organised Timetable
• Encouragement
• Clear Explanations
• Activity for All
• Corrections (One at a time)

Each Session includes:

• Warm-up
• Stretching
• Solo Skills
• Small Sided Games (SSGs)
• Fun Group Games
• Pair Work Skills
• Cool Down & Final Stretch
• Skills Review
