“I became a football coach to give back the knowledge and skills I learnt at their age. I want to teach kids new things and see them improve, but I want

them to enjoy improving and learning these new things in the process. I started in hope that the knowledge I pass on will benefit all the kids in

the game that we all love

Coach David Eayres

BENEFITS

BENEFITS

CommunityOur kids play at specific times of the

day to help combat social disobedience.

After school, saturdays and half term holiday football programme’s

offer children the opportunity to get off the streets, and instead play

football in an organised, safe location. This in turn reduces youth crime rate and also creates a safer environment

for the wider community

HealthIt is proven at the development of excercise and sport sciences at the

university of Copenhagen that small sided football is better than going to

the gym or any other sport. This is because more key muscles are being used at the same time. Also 90% of your heart is being used during the exercise, which significantly increases blood pressure. This is very good for

children at a young age.

SocialThe children are in constant

interaction with others of a similar age group to them. This allows them to

create friends and interact in a fun and friendly environment with new people.

This helps to develop key communication and social skills which are essential later on in the child’s life.

Reece Auger,11

Reece is a regular atour coaching camps,and the improvementshe has made over thepast 6 months are excellent. Reece wasrecommended to one of our affiliated teams, Chigwell Boys, and has since gone on to be a regular in the side, and scoring 10 goals this season. Not bad for a defender!

“PERSONALLY, I NEED TO

PLAY EVERYWEEK,

I LOVE IT”

Hayden YoungAFC Bramble

Page 25: Youth Football at Lucozade Powerleague

“Powerleague is a great place to have a kick about with a few mates or even

participate in league matches on friday’s or weekends.

Either one is by far the best way to get your fitness up to the

maximum level.

Tight space, 5 a side, definatly ensures you are walking off the pitch dripping in sweat.

I can say it will 100% help my cardio, stamina and

general excercise.

I think it’s a hell of a lot more physical than 11 a side, but hey, its

much more fun. My mates and I first started

Powerleague for a laugh, but with strict, Qualified referees and

competitive teams, we soon found ourselves battling for 1st in the 4th division. We are now top of the 1st

division!

I personally need to play every week, I love it”

us decide which division is most appropriate for your teams ability. This will increase enjoyment, asyou will be competing against

teams of a similar standard.

Community

We know how much the youth of today are stereotyped as being ‘hooligans’, so we at

Lucozade Powerleague offer an alternative foryoung adults.

Our leagues and tournaments are at times of the day where young adults could be out on the streets causing trouble to the community. So we offer them the chance

to come to one of our centers and play some competitive football.

We actively discourage social disobedience, and we feel that with our product we will reduce the

amount of youths on the streets, andincrease the number of people playing

football at grassroots level.

Health

We actively encourage young adults to lead a healthier lifestyle. It is prooven that small sided

football is better for people’s health, than going to thegym or participating in any other sport.

Just an hour a week’sworth of football can significantly improve your health,and let’s face it, we’ve all been in that situation wherewe feel like excercising is a chore.

Well here at Lucozade powerleague we can gurantee that youwill not only become alot healthier in

playing on our pitches, but you will enjoy doing so.

We know that you will be coming back for more!
