Our small group sessions are a great way for your child to work with other players on skills in an environment where they can push each other to succeed.

These sessions are about working with one another to improve technically with the benefit of having other similarly able players to play in conjunction with, just like at the weekend.

“Fantastic coaching sessions with such friendly and approachable coaches. They’ve made a real effort to get to know the children, keep them engaged and involved, and build their confidence and skills. My son has absolutely loved attending and always comes away smiling. Highly recommend!”

Antonio and his team of coaches are fantastic at the technical delivery of football coaching but also hit the mark exactly right in bringing fun and confidence building to every element of their teaching. My son looks forward to every session and the week on week improvement has been massive as it really focusses in on where he needs that extra little bit of help, the best bit for us as parents though is seeing how much he’s grown in confidence and happiness!! Thank you Antonio and team for everything you do!

“I highly recommend Progressive Soccer, we have used them for 1:1 coaching and more recently holiday camps. Both my boys love it and count down the days until the next time they can go. Antonio is really friendly and encouraging and a great coach. The sessions are fun and support all abilities."
