EduKick England - A Football & English Centre of Excellence
At EduKick England students have 3 hours of English language study daily...with all classes conducted in "executive suites" within the Reebok Stadium (see photo of executive suite below). Our professional and experienced inlingua teachers using the effective inlingua method and materials will ensure that learning English is fun and motivating. While formal elements of the language are introduced, they are also reinforced with spoken fluency and listening comprehension work, as well as by using project work involving interactive tasks using all resources in and outside the classroom. Particular emphasis is placed on improving the students’ confidence and communicative abilities when speaking and listening.
Soccer Training
(Afternoon)
Students have 2 hours soccer training per day for 3 days per week with a competitive football tournament on the 4th day (5 or 11 a side). The soccer course is designed for competent soccer players with a good level of fitness. The syllabus will be comprehensive, developing and building upon existing soccer skills. The BWFC coaches are committed to the development of each individual player's skills so that they achieve the best possible level of personal ability during the time permitted by the course.
Soccer Skills Covered:
Speed, agility & quickness
Pass & move drills
Dribbling, turning and ball skills
Running with the ball
Shooting / Heading / Control
Goalkeeping (optional)
Set pieces (from corners / freekicks / throw-ins etc.)
All participants will be expected to take an active role in these elements, so it is important that students have a good level of fitness before they attend the soccer camp.
When training the EduKick England players, the Academy coaches will use all the latest coaching methods as utilised at their BWFC Youth Academy.

What sets us apart:
At EduKick England we offer a complete approach to football training & English language development! English speaking players participate in SOCCER 101 classes in lieu of English classes.
Currently soccer is more competitive than ever. Players are faster, stronger, and better
trained than they were in the past. To continue to meet these competitive demands requires an approach with attention to four areas of player performance: technical, tactical, physical, and mental.
These four areas serve as the foundation for athletic achievement. Overlooking any of these areas denies a soccer player the opportunity for optimum development.
The goal of the “The EduKick England program”
is to work with players on every aspect of their training to ensure they develop the physical,
technical, tactical and mental foundation required for better performance in soccer matches. The coaching provided has a ratio of one (1) qualified coach per 15 players maximum. The coach to player ratio is kept purposely low to assure optimal
instruction for our EduKick athletes.
