Club sessions
We offer a unique, diverse, vibrant, dynamic and questioning coaching culture. Our mission is to create the best environment we can for all children.
We run differently. We are not about 'kids in kits in teams in leagues'. Our younger age groups do not play adult structured and led league football. Our 'Who we are' document explains a bit more about us.
Our Saturday sessions are delivered by a dedicated team of DBS checked, FA qualified coaches who have FA Safeguarding and FA Emergency Aid Certificates, This includes our enthusiastic DBS-checked volunteers.
REGISTRATION 2024-25
New members
We are full across our age groups but things can change across the season so it is worth requesting a place - contact Debbie [email protected] to check. If you do make contact, we will send you some material about our philosophy as it is important to ensure we are a good fit for you and your child.
We also have Guiding Principles (see below) which underpin everything we do.
If we have space, we will offer your child a free taster session.
Registration
If, after your taster session, your child would like to join, all new members will be asked to:
1. Complete and return a new club session Google form and confidential medical information form.
2. Pay a registration fee of £30 per child (or £50 if there is more than one child in the family). Payment should be made by online banking using your child's surname as a reference.
3. A standing order of £15 per month must then be set up and should be paid every month, on the 1st of the month, throughout the year The monthly fee is reduced to £12 for all additional children in a family. Again please use your child's surname as a reference.
Please read the club membership policy.

Our Guiding Principles
How we coach
We have a very clear and specific way of coaching. Please see our coaching page.
We do not have kids standing being lectured at by coaches or waiting for a turn of the ball. Nor do we constantly direct play, telling children how and what to do on the ball.
We use a facilitative and child-centred approach to coaching and we produce coaching documents to explain this.
You can read more in our 'How We Coach' document' and in our Salisbury Rovers' Child-Led coaching document.
We use an evidence-based, long-term approach to designing sessions. Early talent identification is flawed. We include all children. We listen to children.
We try and be as transparent as we can about our approach. Our session plans are always available and we welcome your questions on how we deliver..
