Ever wondered what it takes to perform at the highest level? Our exclusive Train Like a Pro day offers a unique opportunity to experience life as a professional footballer. With expert coaching from an FA-qualified trainer, tactical insights, and a focus on sports nutrition, you'll get a true sense of what it takes to prepare like a pro. The event takes place on 14 April 2025 from 8:30AM to 5:00PM, and is open to players aged 12-16. The cost for the entire day's session is £50.
The day begins with a nutritional pro sports breakfast before moving into a high-level training session led by an FA-qualified coach, focusing on attacking and defensive principles. Pupils will take part in video match analysis to build tactical awareness, followed by a nutrition masterclass offering insights into a professional athlete’s diet. After a healthy sports lunch, the afternoon includes a strength and conditioning session, an introduction to pre-activation and stretching techniques, and ends with a competitive 7-a-side training match to put new skills into action.
To get the most out of the day, participants should bring football boots and trainers for different training surfaces, along with football socks and shin pads for protection during matches. A refillable water bottle is essential to stay hydrated, and a snack will help keep energy levels up. We also recommend bringing a notepad and pen to take notes during the tactical and nutrition sessions.
