A New Way to Play Football at Xcite

Every child’s football journey is different. That’s why we’re giving Xcite Football Coaching a fresh new approach – designed to be more flexible, inclusive and focused on helping every child progress at their own pace.

Progress based on skills, not age

Progress based on skills, not age

Our new pathway moves away from age-based groups and puts your child’s development at the heart of their journey.

Children can progress through each stage as their skills, confidence and understanding grow, meaning they can be challenged at the right level without unnecessary restrictions.

From those taking their first steps with a ball to children developing more advanced skills, there’s a place for everyone.

We've also introduced a new Parent & Child session for ages 2-3.

Little ones get the opportunity to discover football through play alongside their grown-up.

It’s all about those first kicks, building confidence and coordination, having fun and creating positive early experiences with sport.

More than just football

More than just football

Our coaching is about helping children develop a lifelong love of the game.

Sessions encourage creativity, self-expression, teamwork and confidence, without the pressure of competition. Children can learn, experiment, make friends and enjoy being active in an environment where everyone belongs.

As they progress through the pathway, they’ll build the skills and confidence to take their next steps – whether that’s continuing with Xcite or moving towards local club football.
