Farnborough Football Coaching for 4 - 14 year olds

Nathan Phillips

I have been involved in football from an early age, playing for a number of junior clubs and continue to play competitively to this day. Football is a big part of my life and I am a graduate in Football Studies, a degree that widened my knowledge of the industry and helped develop my coaching skills through working with some well established professional coaches.

Football is a game that possesses many great attributes and is a game that is accessible to everyone. I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to play football whatever their background or ability and this is reflected in my coaching where there is an emphasis on fun as well as skill development. 

Football can be used as a powerful tool of development as it possesses many life skills such as respect and teamwork. It can also be used to show the importance of issues such as healthy living and exercise. As coaches we have the opportunity to teach children these important values as well as developing the players of the future. This is reflected in my coaching where I promote an inclusive, fair and fun environment whilst also developing individual skill and talent and the principles of football.
