Calendar

Coaching sessions take place on our excellent 3G pitch throughout term time. All our staff are professionally qualified, DBS checked, experienced and enthusiastic about young footballers learning new skills, progressing well and enjoying the experience.

For information on how to enrol to any of our football sessions please contact: info@ymcaleeds.org.uk

Freestyle & Futsal

We have two sessions coaching Freestyle/Futsal every Monday night, one for younger, developing players and one for older, enthusiastic players.

Freestyle football is the art of self-expression through creatively juggling a football using any parts of the body, excluding the elbows to the hands. It combines football tricks, dance, acrobatics and music to entertain onlookers and compete with opponents.

Futsal is a mini football sport that has been played since the 1970s and taken up by FIFA in 1989. It has been constantly developed and enhanced to what it has become today.

Football Coaching Academy

Our football Coaching Academy was established in 2004. From then we have gone strength to strength, offering coaching sessions for boys from age 4 and for girls aged 6- 11 years.

We also have a pathway for players who are keen to progress into competitive football. At the end of the summer term of football coaching your child has the opportunity to join the Junior Football Section of the YMCA and play in the Harrogate and District League.

To help the transition go smoothly a meeting is organised to register the players and the team, organise kit and introduce you to your new coaches and manager. The Junior Football Club runs teams of Under 9s through to seniors.
