Football is about expression but expression must be guided. ⚽ Break the Line encourages children to see beyond sideways passes. They learn: Patience in possession Courage to play between defenders The joy of timing a run into space This activity isn’t just a drill. It’s…

At a festival recently, one coach split their U9s into “A” and “B” teams. The children noticed. They always do.

⛔ Myth: Shouting instructions helps children learn faster. ✅ Truth: Quiet support allows children to make decisions and develop understanding of the game. Shouting doesn’t speed up learning it shuts it down. When every decision is directed from the touchline, children stop…

Having been involved in football for a long time, I've come to realise that badges are no guarantee of quality coaching. Whether it's the club badge, or the coaching badge, it doesn't mean the coach will be at a certain level. I've seen grassroots L1 coaches who are more…

Too often, I still hear: “She’s a striker” or “He’s a centre-back.” Labels we put on children before they’ve even had the chance to explore the game. Youth football is not about locking children into one role. It’s about giving them the freedom to experience the game from every…
