DIVISIONS

Lead First Academy Football training program is a curriculum-based training program that focuses on developing players' individual skills & talents. Over the course of the sessions, players will work to improve dribbling for speed, first touch, shooting & passing technique as well as work on agility and dynamic movement.

This program is perfect for any player hoping to play at the club level or make an impression with their town travel or university teams! Lead First Academy has a themed format that develops and builds skills on a week-to-week basis. Our players gain knowledge and experience towards the development of their technical, tactical, physical and psychological aspects of their game.

BOYS DIVISION

Football training for children can help improve their confidence. By completing a pass with their weaker foot, learning a new skill, dribbling/keeping the ball under control, or scoring their first goal, their self-esteem can receive a real boost, making them more confident individuals.

At Lead First Academy we teach our players at this stage how to deal with and overcome setbacks as an important skill, seeing as life rarely runs smoothly. It shows the players the value of learning from their mistakes, building their mental capacity and seeing themselves as able to achieve the impossible.

GIRLS DIVISION

Purpose: To ensure equity for eligible women (students, staff, and departments) to participate and succeed in an academy of high international standing.
