MOF Football Academy for BOYS & GIRLS AGE 5–14

BOYS AND GIRLS AGE 5-14

Training is based on both technical (execution) and tactical (decision making) work without any separation of the two as techniques and tactics never manifest themselves separately during a game. Trainings conducted are planned, structured and organized according to the specific stages of football development. Our curriculum content is adapted to the player – according to

the age they are,
the condition they are in, and
the abilities they possess.

The goal is to develop their abilities progressively and ensure that the training ground is a place of (a) learning, (b) fun (without forgetting the competitive aspect of the game) and (c) education (physical, mental and emotional).
