Cambridgeshire FA - developing football for everyone
Development - take your skills to the next level

School Delivery

One of the aims of The Skills Programme is not only for the Skills Coaches to have an impact upon young people within Schools, but also to help teachers and school staff in their personal development and delivery of National Curriculum PE, thus leaving a legacy of good coaching and good practice.

Skills Coaching is about:

· Creating positive learning environments for young players.
· Focusing on developing fundamental movement skills and functional movement for football in KS1.
· Further introduction of football techniques and skill acquisition through KS2.
· Providing a coaching environment open to young people where making mistakes is accepted.
· Managing differences in young players and ensuring they all achieve success and provide appropriate strategies to help their development

Our work in schools is aimed to not only develop the children taking part in the sessions, but also teachers within the school so they have the resources to deliver football based PE lessons. As part of the scheme of work in the schools the teachers will be given session plans that relate to:

· The 4 stands of National Curriculum PE.
· Session Organisation, Coaching Points and Teaching Styles.
· Objectives that cover the needs of all pupils in the class.

If you would like The FA Tesco Skills Programme to be delivered within your school please contact your PDM or alternatively contact the relevant coach directly.
