      <image:title>Academy Sessions - ACADEMY SESSIONS</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our technical academy sessions based in Bromley and Beckenham focus on the development of players from the ages of 3 up to 18 years old. Using our many years of experience in professional football our mission is to have a positive affect on every player who attends our sessions. We are fortunate to know through our experiences, success is more than the work on the training pitch. We use our sessions to improve the players technically and tactically, as well as teach them the professional mindset and the many facets of the game. This includes strength, power, agility, movement patterns, positional knowledge, game management skills and nutritional advice. The fun weekly sessions look to improve the children’s ability across the different aspects of the FA’s ‘4 Corner Model’ which includes ball mastery, technical skills, individual and team play and football fitness. Our professional coaches plan and structure challenging sessions to engage all players. We also prepare for academy fixtures and showcase games to display the children’s progress. Every 12 weeks, each player receives their own individual progress report which we then work alongside them to help their development. We set short, medium and longterm goals based on our academy teams thoughts and our experience in the professional game. As your child progresses at the academy we can move them to different sessions to make sure they are being challenged and developing constantly. All coaches are highly qualified through the FA and UEFA and hold First Aid and Safeguarding qualifications. They have also been DBS checked and are part of the FA Licensed Coaches Club.</image:caption>
