Our coaches take those extra steps to make each and every player feel connected to the sport and responsible for their own development.
We rate our success on the player’s enjoyment and development.
We strive to expand their horizons and give the player their chance to shine.
How we coach?
We work from an age specific curriculum. The curriculum is designed by Director of Coaching Barry Dolan from his years of experience working with players and teams from Ireland, England and America. We help players improve by having them in contact with the ball as much as possible, increasing their ball mastery and confidence.
We concentrate on fun and games for the younger groups. If a child enjoys the experience they will keep playing the sport in question and improve their own skills over time.
For the more accomplished/older groups, we concentrate on players technique and tactical awareness, we challenge them to improve their own skills and learn new ones at each training session.
No matter whom we coach, we help increase their fitness and their enjoyment of the sport. We want all players to go home from their session with new knowledge and a positive approach to their chosen sport.
