Skill Centres

Weekly football coaching sessions to help young players develop and enjoy the game.

Skill Centres provide children and young people with the opportunity to develop their football skills, build confidence and enjoy regular football activity in a fun and supportive environment. Open to players of all abilities, sessions are available in both mixed and girls-only formats and include weekly coaching, skill development activities and matches.

Each block focuses on a specific area of the game, allowing participants to progressively develop their understanding and ability throughout the programme. Delivered by experienced and enthusiastic coaches, Skill Centres are designed to complement any existing grassroots football commitments while providing additional opportunities for players to learn, improve and enjoy the game.

Sessions take place during school term time at venues across Leicestershire and are available to children aged 5–13. Places cost £4 per session. Registration takes place five minutes before each session, with participants placed into age-appropriate coaching groups.

Every participant receives a certificate in recognition of their involvement and development. For participants who are not currently involved with a grassroots club, Leicester City in the Community can also help signpost players to local football opportunities.

What To Bring

Participants should bring:

Suitable clothing for all weather conditions
Shin pads and football socks
Goalkeeper gloves (if required)
Appropriate football boots (metal studs are not permitted)
Any required medication
A refillable water bottle

All participants must be dropped off and collected by a parent or guardian. Parents and carers are kindly asked to remain on site for the duration of the session. Parents and carers will receive an email at least one day before the programme begins containing all the information they need ahead of attendance.
