Chris Emms

Football is the best game in the world and coaching football is my passion. From the first time I kicked a ball to the present day, I have enjoyed every single minute. I have played with, against and been taught by the very best footballers over the last 25 years and I would like to share my experience with the next generation of footballers. Whether you are a complete beginner or the next Wayne Rooney, I can promise to help your game in a fun, safe, healthy and professional coaching environment. All my sessions are full of fun, exciting new football skills to learn and most of all to make new friends.

Active Soccer’s aim is to provide professional coaching programmes to all young football enthusiasts.

The clubs are very easy to set up, as Active Soccer will provide all application forms, registers and certificates for all the children. We can also attend your school to promote the course during one of your school assemblies. The children then hand in their completed forms to the school secretary or your nominated member(s) of staff and our staff will be there to kick off your after school club. Or if your School prefers your local Active Soccer Head Office can handle the course entirely ensuring your school do not have the extra worry of this activity.
