The first module is a four day course that looks at the child and where they are developmentally (separated in four areas - physical, psychological, technical and social aspects) and then packages football through a number of exciting new activities in such a way that it "fits" the child and not the other way round.

This marks a progressive change in coaching philosophy, creating a truly player centred approach to the coaching and development of our young players.


Examples of the feedback we received:

‘just letting you know the Youth Module 1 that finished yesterday was an excellent course, one of the best coach education courses I have been on. ……a very good tutor and I thought she pitched it at exactly the right level . I think the general consensus was that everyone enjoyed it and would be keen to do the module 2.’

‘Just a very big thanks for the FA YA Module 1 course over the last 2 weekends. The course content was fantastic and excellently delivered………I learnt so much and I know it has changed the way I coach the kids. The biggest problem for you now is “When can you get me on the module 2”?!!!’

‘First of all I must say what a thoroughly enjoyable experience the FA Youth Module 1 course has been. Everyone on the course enjoyed it.’
