All About Our Coaching Philosophy

Developing individuals as people and players

Our unique approach follows how a professional academy would run as closely as possible. Our focus is on developing the individual to fulfil their potential with the view of getting into academy football. Our dedicated and enthusiastic coaches are committed to encouraging players at every opportunity while upholding the standards required for the elite level.

We prioritise identifying players' strengths and addressing weaker aspects of their game. We provide 'Academy' players with an Individual Development Plan (IDP) and conduct reviews every 12 weeks.

See What Our Clients Say About Us

Noah has grown in confidence since starting at SWFA. His ball skills have improved massively, his understanding of the game and attitude towards the game is excelling. Jack is great with the players, encouraging them to be the best that they can be. Noah is really happy to be part of the SWFA. 
We have found SWFA to provide an all-around comprehensive training programme that our son enjoys. The depth and wealth of experience is obvious in their teaching methods. Most importantly our son find the sessions fun.
Cannot fault the communication, organisation and commitment at the SWFA , my son has been really enjoying his sessions and improving massively on his technical skills. Jack makes the sessions fun , while still being firm and coaching the boys at a high level . So glad we found Jack and the SWFA
I've been watching my great nephew on his football course at the SWFA.
I must say he's coming on a treat.Not only football ability wise but his perception on what to expect if he ever gets to a football league club.
Very impressed with the coaching techniques and my young nephew can't wait for his next training session.
Jack is a talented coach, bringing a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every training session.  He has a deep understanding of the game and breaks it down into easily digestible lessons for my son’s age group.  I am very happy that we have a coach of Jacks standard guiding Charlie’s football development.
I have seen lot of improvement in my son after joining Southwest football academy. Jack is an excellent coach. Highly Recommended!
SWFA has offered our boy, who is a  talented footballer,  the chance to excel and further develop  his skills.  A no nonsense and frankly professional approach has given him the chance,  skills and football intelligence to focus on how he can meet the standards expected in the professional game. The Academy teaches in very small groups undertaken by professional UEFA trained coaches and is clearly of a high standard.
