Under 8’s
As a team we are dedicated, Committed. And we definitely work hard at training all ready to put into practice for match days where we have had some great results so far. We try to play good open passing football using many different talents that we have within our squad. In return we are in the red league.
In goal we have 2 very brave goalkeepers who are big and strong. And like any quality keepers they hate picking the ball out the back of the net. Were very lucky as they get special coaching on Saturday mornings. We also have very clever and strong defenders who always clear there lines and keep the ball away from danger and try not to put too much pressure on their goalies. In the engine room for our team are our midfielders who have bags of energy and pitch awareness to set goals up for our strikers. With some spectacular goals scored already this season our strikers certainly know where the net is.
As a squad we have been together for nearly 3 years and really are progressing at a fast rate. So much so we have had some of our squad scouted by professional clubs including Reading and Chelsea.
Your Manager
I have been a football coach for nearly 10 years know starting with my eldest son who currently plays for A.F.C U15’s. They have tasted a mixture of successes one player even signing for a professional club. Great pay back for all those hours coaching. I have to say I am really enjoying my Managing / Coaching of our u 8s where my youngest son plays. I have an extremely talented squad of players to work with who I have to say train and play the game well above there years.
