Our Philosophy
Our coaching philosophy puts focus on the journey and participation instead of winning, making sure everyone has FUN. We believe in giving every individual the opportunity to train, play and improve themselves.
To achieve our objectives, we do our best to follow these rules:
1) One ball to each child
2) 1 coach : 10 players (1: 6 for Under 4s)
3) Positive environment for experimenting
4) Modified, small-sided games over drills and queues
5) Encourage parent involvement
Areas of Child Development:
Technical – fundamental skills eg. dribbling, passing, shooting etc.
Tactical – fundamental tactics eg. attacking and defending principles.
Mental – mental strength, strong character, positive attitude etc.
Physical – balance, co-ordination, agility, speed etc.
Fun – enjoyment and social skills.
