Kickstart Coaching Football Holiday Camps

Overview

Kickstart Coaching is a local independent football coaching operation running holiday clubs and development days at Priors Field School in Godalming. Three separate programmes run across the summer, aimed at different age groups and ability levels. Being independent rather than a national franchise means smaller groups and more coaching contact time per child.

All sessions take place at Priors Field School, GU7, and run roughly 9am to 3pm.

Mixed Football Holiday Club (ages 5 to 14)

• Open to boys and girls, Reception through to year 9
• Sessions split by year group so younger children aren't mixed with older ones
• Technical skills covering passing, dribbling, shooting and first touch
• Small-sided games, position coaching and full matches with tactical feedback
• Coaching pitched to the ability and development stage of each year group

Girls Football Holiday Club (ages 5 to 12)

• Girls-only sessions for school years 1 to 7
• Same FA-qualified coaching team as the mixed programme
• Focus on enjoyment and confidence as much as technique
• Particularly suited to children new to football or who prefer a single-sex environment
• Passing, dribbling, shooting, small-sided games and matches throughout the day

Advanced Development Days (ages 11 to 14)

• For players in school years 6 to 9 already competing at club or school team level
• Not suitable for beginners
• Technically demanding sessions covering first touch, movement and weight of pass
• Tactical work on positional play, team shape and game intelligence
• Match play with detailed debrief
• Group sizes deliberately small to keep coaching focused and individual feedback meaningful
