Under 12s – Boys and Girls (Aged 11-12)
The Under 12s team is for boys and girls aged 11-12 (School Year 7). This is a vital development year as players transition fully into competitive formats of the game, including 9-a-side football.
Training sessions include higher-level technical drills, game scenario decision-making, and improved positional discipline. Players begin to understand how to contribute to a team strategy while refining their individual style of play.
Regular 9-a-side league matches and tournaments are key to the Under 12s calendar, encouraging consistent commitment, match discipline, and teamwork. The coaching approach supports personal development, resilience, and communication skills alongside football progress.
This stage helps players become more adaptable, motivated, and tactically aware as they move closer to full 11-a-side football.
