Why more and more parents are choosing football clubs for their kids

 

Fun & Participation: Football is the world’s most enjoyed sport. Our Hertfordshire school focusses on maximum enjoyment, encouraging every child to try new moves, celebrate each small success and make new friends.


Great Exercise & Fitness: Continuous action, varied running speeds and dynamic practice drills boost fitness, stamina and agility. Improved physical confidence translates to higher self-esteem both on and off the pitch.


Team Sport & Social Skills: Playing in a team teaches communication, cooperation and respect. Fair play is at the heart of every activity, helping children broaden their social circles and learn to support one another.

Simplicity & Accessibility: Football needs minimal equipment and simple rules, so classes can take place in parks, school fields or local community centres across Hertfordshire. Once children grasp the basics, they can progress to more advanced techniques without limits.


Inclusion: Our football club welcomes all heights, builds and abilities. Girls play alongside boys, each finding the position that suits their strengths and learning to work together towards a common goal.


Low Risk & Safety: Football is not a collision sport, so the risk of injury is lower than in rougher team games. Premier Skills Academy strictly follows all child-protection and Covid-compliance guidelines, ensuring a secure setting for every session.

    Very satisfied with the coaching techniques. This was the first actual football coaching my son was enrolled into. Just around an year with them, still looks like he is improving day by day. He is always looking forward to team training, skills and Sunday league match. His first season and they already won a league. Highly recommend the academy.

    My 6 year old did much of this year training at Premier Skills in Harpenden and enjoyed it 100% every session. He picked up basic football skills within the first few weeks of attendance, and responded well to the techniques used by the coaches. If you have young children and want them to learn football in a fun non intimidating atmosphere, I recommend this organisation.

    Great place for young children who want to learn football in a friendly environment with fun being the main aim whilst improving their skills. Dave very honest and open. Nas spends alot of time and attention to each individual players needs and the other coach supports/interacts with the children well.

“Dave is an excellent coach. Very engaging and aims to develop all the children to be the best that they can be. His sessions always seem to be fun and, indirectly, always developing some technical or tactical skill. My child has really enjoyed the sessions and plays with a smile on her face. Her skills have developed during the short time with Dave, and she plays with more confidence. What more can you ask for in a coach!”
— Matthew Tang, Hertfordshire parent
