At the Strikers, we believe that the phase between 8 and 12 years old is absolutely key for a football player’s development and we make sure our coaches are specialised in these age groups and have the right knowledge, experience and passion to guide them and inspire them.

Our U9-U12 program is directly connected to the Academy program, being all of them based on the same football identity and very similar training methodology. These very young players mainly need to develop their love for football and need to practice their technical skills, but we are positive that they can and they must do all this by enhancing their decision making at the same time, which means no more and no less than they can take their development to the next level by using real football related exercises from the start to the end of a training session.
