Small Sided Technical Sessions
6-14 Years

Ready to Take your Game to the Next Level?

Our advanced specialised technical development sessions for small groups (6 players max) which will be led by our UD senior coaches: Denerson, Matt and Lennie.

These unique weekly sessions will allow our coaches to work on specific development training to support each child’s technical & tactical needs. All attending players will be monitored and evaluated on a monthly basis and our coaches will also support each child on setting their own short & long developmental targets to work towards.

Session Overview

All of our small group technical development sessions have been carefully designed for age-appropriate player development learning. Each week, our UDFC lead coaches will deliver specialised training topics based on the players current ability level with a view of progressing them through our technical development tiers. 

To help our players achieve their goals, each child will receive monthly feedback from their coaches as well as weekly training homework for them to complete and feedback on. 

As a club, UDFC are dedicated on developing programmes that best meet the needs of all players and this particular programme offers those of our more advanced players (6-14 years) with the perfect platform to work on their individual strengths and weaknesses.

Technical Development Pathway

In order for our coaches to monitor and evaluate each player’s progress, we have created the following development tiers to track their technical strengths and weaknesses.

Depending on the individuals’ current footballing aptitude, our players will likely find themselves training across various developmental tiers for each technical skill/topic.

The overarching aim of this programme is to accelerate the development of our most committed UD members as well as provide those players with a tailored progression pathway to reach their full potential.

Tier 1
Tier 1 Will focus on the fundamentals, including: Coordination/balance, mastering the principles techniques of football, dribbling, passing, finishing and defending.

Tier 2
As our players advance through to tier 2, we will build on the fundamental training skills learned during tier 1 and develop their positional knowledge in preparation for competitive matches.

Tier 3
All players who have progressed to this tier will be challenged with advanced learning topics to fine-tune their game.
