At PlayerFirst, we help young footballers turn potential into progress. From grassroots to elite level, we offer personalised, professional coaching for committed players aged 8+. Our programmes build technical, tactical, physical, and mental skills — with a focus on performance across all four phases of the game: defending, attacking, and both transitions.
We deliver On the Ball! — an innovative programme blending classroom support in literacy and numeracy with structured on-pitch coaching. Aimed at pupils at risk of disengaging, it promotes improved attendance, participation, and attainment by linking curriculum-based learning with physical activity that builds motivation, confidence, and connection in school life.
PlayerFirst offers a full support package to clubs — from pre-season planning to in-season delivery — tailored for all levels and age groups. Sessions are designed with your coaches and focus on improving performance in all four phases: defending, attacking, and both transitions, while also building team cohesion and game intelligence.
