U11-U12 Junior Academy

Building on the foundation from our U7–U10 program, the U11–U12 stage is trial-based and designed to push players to higher levels of technical excellence, tactical understanding, and mental sharpness.
We focus on refining each player’s individual skills and decision-making under pressure, within a competitive environment that demands focus, creativity, and resilience — preparing them to excel at the next level of their football journey.

Elevating Players to the Next Level

Next Level Coaching Structure

At this stage, players build on the foundations from the Pre-Academy (U7-U10) while transitioning into a more structured and competitive environment. The focus shifts towards technical refinement, decision-making, and tactical awareness, ensuring players develop a deeper understanding of the game while maintaining creativity and confidence.

Coaching Principles

✅ Increased Tactical Awareness – Introduce structured positional play.
✅ Sharper Technical Execution – Encourage precision and speed under pressure.
✅ Decision-Making Focus – Develop quick thinking in game situations.
✅ Game-Like Environments – Use small-sided games to reinforce learning.
✅ Confidence & Creativity – Players should still feel encouraged to express themselves.

This structure ensures that players smoothly progress from fundamental skill-building to game understanding, preparing them for the next stage of their development.
