Development Programme
Train and develop further with the Fenwick Falcon Football club.
PERFORMANCE CENTRE
The performance centre is divided into the foundation phase (Under 8 to Under 11) and youth development (Under 12 to Under 14). In line with our curriculum and philosophy, the performance groups undergo training once a week and play competitive matches against local teams on a Saturday.
Recruitment for all the age groups is in the summer and winter, ensuring internal competition to promote development within each team. The sessions are structured to develop each player technical, tactical, and perceptual-cognitive skills whilst promoting a cohesive environment between players, coaches, and parents.
Players who are chosen to represent the club in competition must meet club requirements, as the club is a believer in developing the future generations on and off the football pitch. The curriculum for the performance centre is in line with research from Roca (2022), O’Connor and colleagues (2017), Ford and colleagues (2010).
All sessions are split into 70% random-practice activities (small-sided games, opposed activities) and 30% block-practice activities (ball mastery, unopposed activities). The sessions mimic game environments for players to transfer learnt skills to matches.
This is an invite-only session.
TECHNICAL CENTRE
The technical centre is primarily promoted for all our members who represent the club in the performance centre.
In line with our curriculum and philosophy the technical centre is constructed of small groups with similar age. The training sessions are aligned with our philosophy; focusing on a player-centred approach.
The sessions are structured to develop each player technical, tactical, and perceptual-cognitive skills whilst promoting a cohesive environment between players, coaches, and parents. Throughout the programme, our coaches identify the areas of development need for each play and construct a session to meet those needs.
This is for members only. Please speak with your coach for further information.
DEVELOPMENT CENTRE
This is a program we run for children between the ages of 5 - 7 and all football abilities are welcomed. We run this session more for recreational purposes to help build confidence for new starters who haven't played football before but would still like to learn and develop.
We use proven strategies and methods to help build confidence in a relaxed & fun environment. This allows the players to build trust amongst each other and form friendships which are crucial when playing for a team.
Now we have trials a new U7 team starting from January 2023. Book your trial spot now!
