ILLNESS OR INJURY
Unfortunately we are not able to take payment via childcare vouchers.
1. Suitable clothing - Players should arrive ready-to-play in their football gear. Please remember to bring suitable clothing, including shin pads, and ideally moulded football boots or astro trainers. Other trainers are fine too, as long as they offer good support and grip for grass surfaces.
Please check the day's weather forecast and dress accordingly since our sessions are held outdoors.
For rainy days, don't forget to pack a waterproof jacket and a spare set of clothes. That way, players can switch to dry clothes if needed. Otherwise, we might need to call you to bring extra clothes or take your child home early to avoid potential illness.
When it's hot and sunny, please apply sun cream before arrival and bring a bottle in the bag. Players will be told to reapply by our coaches during breaks at regular points.
Indoor areas are available to us if weather conditions require an adjustment.
2. Water and refillable drinks bottle - Everyone should bring their own water bottle to stay hydrated. We've scheduled plenty of drink breaks and have water fountains available for refilling.
3. Packed lunch and small snack – Please bring a morning snack and a packed lunch. We'll have a morning break for a snack to recharge and lunch will be eaten in the Pavilion or outside in the shade, depending on the weather.
The Alleyn’s campus is a nut, coconut, and sesame-free site, even in the outdoor areas. If attendees bring any products on site containing these ingredients, they will be disposed of in accordance with Alleyn’s School Allergy Policy.
Mobile Phones
If an attendee brings a mobile phone with them to the course, we will ask that the device is turned off and kept in a bag for the duration of the session.
While each day has a different theme, we do follow a set pattern outlined below.
Through these sessions, attendees benefit from a competitive training programme using carefully planned drills, our coaches help players to develop and master their existing skills and learn new techniques.
Our goal is to help each child to become a better player, and to make sure that they have fun in the process.
A good coaching course has several key features to ensure the effective learning and improvement of a players basketball skills:
Our football camp is designed with all skill levels in mind. Every participant can progress at their own rate, our experienced coaches and instructors are accustomed to working with children of different abilities and provide guidance and support throughout the camp
We're proud of the welcoming environment our camp fosters. Children of various skills levels come together, learn from each other, and enjoy the thrill of the game together. This creates a friendly, encouraging atmosphere where each child feels at home while learning and growing.
Our camp is more than just about football. It's a great opportunity for your child to hone new skills, boost their confidence, and gain enriching experiences. Regardless of their starting skill level, every participant will find room to grow and improve here.
Lastly, your child's safety is our priority. We ensure the highest standards of safety with experienced coaches and staff who supervise all activities, teach correct techniques, and maintain a secure environment for all attendees.
