Professional footballers start here
When it comes to playing football, practice makes permanent. Our weekly football coaching sessions are a great foundation for boys and girls wanting to move into local grassroots clubs or professional academies. We’ve had over 200 players signed professionally so far.

The weather won’t stop us
The majority of our venues have indoor and outdoor spaces so your child is always comfortable. We focus on football skills and technique in small spaces during winter, so our players can experiment on larger fields in summer.

Sign up for a block - not the whole year
We plan a thorough one year syllabus, but that doesn’t mean you need to commit to the whole year at once. We keep our weekly football coaching flexible with block session arrangements too.
Each week is different. A typical block booking includes this:

Training is tailored to each child's age and ability level. We want to inspire children to love the game. We want them to push their parents to bring them to football! For our older players and more talented players, we aim to challenge them without harming their confidence.

My 7 year old son Ray has really enjoyed his classes with Frazer and the team. Good skills, good fun and plenty of learning taking place.

WMF has been excellent for the introduction and development of my daughter's football, attending both Saturday morning sessions, half-term holiday camps and also the recent Girls Talent day, she has really improved dramatically over the course of the 2017/18 season.

4 skills your child will learn:

Technical
We prioritise teaching basics like passing and shooting, reinforcing them through 1-on-1 practice with similar-skilled players. This all-encompassing approach ensures players learn fundamental skills and game techniques while developing additional attributes like confidence and decision-making.

Social
We keep our weekly training session groups small - just 10 children per coach. This means that players not only get the attention and coaching they need, but also that they can build strong, everlasting friendships without the pressure of a large group.

Physical
We’re all about getting kids moving. Our sessions not only help teach and build basic football skills, but also physical skills that can be applied to other sports or situations as your child grows older. They’ll improve their physical fitness, as well as speed, strength and agility.

Psychological
Our unique weekly training sessions also help your child’s cognitive development. You’ll be able to see your child’s progress in areas such as listening, concentration, confidence and decision making.

Frequently asked questions
The youngest age you can start our weekly sessions from is 4 (although some children start at 3 and a half). However we tend to advise parents to try a class first, as it can be more challenging than other classes aimed at children between 2-3 years old.
