WHAT PARENTS AND KIDS HAVE TO SAY
Saturday Courses
Mr & Mrs J Bushell
"Our son started training with Adrian and his team 5 years ago.
He is always keen to get up and get to training on Saturday mornings.
The coaches are energetic, talented, patient and professional with the personal touch.
We were looking for a place for our son to direct his energy at learning some decent footballing skills. He has achieved all of this and more.
Last term he won the Most Improved Footballer of the Year award at school.
We have a happy young footballer.
Thank you guys. Keep up the good work!"
Abbie Johnson
"In our house and many, many others, every Saturday morning before King's Soccer School or in the holidays before Soccer Camp starts there is a huge excitement and anticipation.
Adrian and his wonderful team of coaches have built up something really special.
We couldn't be happier or more impressed by the dedication, enthusiasm and superb coaching of the King's team.
The coaching is always age and ability appropriate, fun and engaging and the coaches themselves are truly inspiring and utterly delightful.
We couldn't recommend King's more highly. Our son says, "It's totally AWESOME!""
Siobhán Antoniou
"Saturday morning football is the highlight of my son's week, he enjoy's every minute of it and wouldn't miss it for the world!
The lessons are very well organised and a big thank you to the coaches who are excellent.
My son has learnt a lot, not only about football, but about being a team player and making new friends and has grown in confidence as well.He would go every day if he could!
Thanks for everything"
Mrs Denice Terry
"Both my children enjoy King’s Soccer School, Saturday Course.
It has helped them with their football skills and their own confidence.
The sessions are fun, well planned, organised and inclusive. All the children, even with a wide range of abilities are involved and encouraged.
I would and have recommend King’s Soccer School to other parents."
Mike Butters
“My 6 year old son has been attending King’s Soccer School on Saturday mornings for nearly a year now.
He loves it and his football skills have improved tremendously.
The sessions are well organised and are great fun for him to participate in.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend these sessions to others.”
Stuart Holmes
"I have 3 boys who attend King's Coaching and have done since Reception.
Each of them cannot wait for Sunday morning to come around and thoroughly enjoy the interactive sessions, coaching and mini games.
They have all developed not only into football crazy kids (which I love!) but the coaching has also helped them understand the social and respect sides of the game which will be vital lessons as they get older.
In addition to the Saturday coaching all have also taken part in the Holiday Camps and had Birthday Parties which have all proved great fun and excellent value for money for Mum and Dad!Thanks Adrian and his excellent coaching team!"
Phil Bunn
"King's Soccer School Courses do exactly what they say they do.
My son had a fantastic time, enjoying his football, whilst developing and learning new skills.
He didn't want the course to end!
Needless to say we enrolled for the next course straight away.
I would recommend King's Soccer School to anyone."
Tricia Haward
"Given that football can be the currency of the school playground, we were hoping to find a club that would build our son's confidence and develop his skills - we found it!
We have been particularly impressed with the quality of the coaches and their ability to motivate and interact with children, pitching their training at the appropriate level across a range of ages (Reception to Year 4).
They are also very friendly and approachable.
Both sons are really enjoying their coaching, it's great exercise and they have definitely improved their skills, co-ordination and appreciation of team work.
A big thank you to you all."
Leon Schelhase
"We returned to the UK in late 2012 and most of my then 7-year-old daughter's friends were boys. She was desperate to play football.
I'd heard about King's from a friend and contacted Adrian who was very accommodating, allowing her to join mid-term and taking a personal interest in making sure she progresses and gets the most benefit out of the training sessions.
The coaches are fantastic and make a point of learning all the kid's names and ensure that they all get involved.
She loves her Saturday morning football sessions and always asks after the soccer camps during the school holidays. The huge improvement in her skill, ball control, coordination and fitness is testament to the quality of coaching.
I have no hesitation in recommending King's Soccer School."
Holiday Courses
Bal Sandhu
"I have two boys who attend Adrian King’s holiday courses regularly.
My boys are aged 8 and 5 who have commented on the courses as “that was the best three days I’ve ever had playing sport. Why can’t it be for a whole week?”
My two sons do not play or train in the same teams as the children are split into their year groups.
The boys receive high quality football coaching, delivered by qualified coaches who currently work with children.
The coaches bring together all their experiences and enthusiasm to offer children a fun, educational and healthy experience of football.
They take their responsibilities for supervision and safety very seriously which for a mum is reassuring.
The courses have enabled my boys to develop their fundamental movement, ball skills and take part in competitive games in a safe and enjoyable environment. They also enjoy going to play along with their friends from school.
If you are unsure if your child will enjoy it as I was to start with, give it ago for a day and I’m sure just like me you will be overjoyed with how well planned the courses are. Its not only for boys, girls also take part and do well.
I would like to thank Adrian and his team for all their hard work and commitment to running a popular and successful football course.
Keep up the great work!!!"
Suzanne Webb
"Over the last three years, both of my children have attended King's Soccer Schools during the holidays and they always thoroughly enjoy themselves.
The sessions are designed to develop skills as well as provide opportunities to take part in mini tournaments and at the end of the sessions, my boys are always buzzing with excitement and keen to go back the next day!
I have always been impressed with the way the sessions are organised and run and the way that rewards and praise are used, has had a very positive effect on my children.
A great holiday activity!"
Penny Berrington
"Just a word of thanks for the football courses you ran this summer.
Thomas really had so much fun and came home full of tales of what he had been doing and demonstrates his new found skills in the garden!
He is already looking forward to the October course. I am sure it is a lot of work to put on such courses and I wanted to let you know that it is much appreciated.
I am very impressed with the organisation and the enthusiasm all the coaches have for all the children.
Keep up the good work!"
Louise Lear
"I have two boys who for the past three years have attended King's Soccer School.
The course is extremely well organised and the coaches fantastic.
My boys really enjoy themselves, burn off their endless energy whilst learning new skills.
A well structured three days, great value for money with tired, happy kids at the end of it."
Louise Threapleton
"Both our two boys have attended King's Soccer School over the past 3 years.
Adrian leads by example and is a fantastic coach - motivating, positive and totally respected by all the boys.
He and his coaches know the abilities of each child they coach and make sure that they are all involved at every level.
This means that every child has fun and believe me when it is pouring down or freezing that is no mean feat!
My two have excelled under Adrian and his excellent coaching team and not just with their football skills but also with their attitude, confidence and teamwork."
Naomi Foddering
"King's Soccer School provides great professional coaching and more importantly huge enjoyment for the children of all abilities who take part.
Our son had never really shown a great deal of interest in football when he was younger but took to King's coaching sessions straight away.
He not only enjoys the practise but has really developed in ability and confidence.
Well done to all the coaches at King's Soccer School and here's to many more coaching sessions packed with fun and content for learning. As our son would say, "It's epic!""
Annette Cusins
"My two eldest boys have been attending King's Soccer School for the last 4 years and they absolutely LOVE it!
The term-time courses are extremely well organised with a perfect balance of skills training and competitive matches and the holiday camps are excellent - great fun for kids and great value for the parents!
The level of coaching is consistently outstanding and they are all very approachable and encouraging at all times. I'm looking forward to my youngest son joining King's Soccer School in September when he starts Reception!
Jane Coogan
"My 5 year old son has had tremendous time at Adrian King's Saturday football coaching course.
I love that he comes home with a big smile on his face after playing football in a safe, physical and fun environment.
Adrian's love of sport, fair play and friendly manner is always evident and I hope that this rubs off on my son.
I highly recommend the football course and know my son would too!"
Hannah Turner
"Euan thoroughly enjoyed his football party, it was a great mix of skills and match play with the all important certificate and medals.
All the kids joined in and had great fun, even those who were new to football. I would thoroughly recommend the football party.
Furthermore, Euan has gained so much confidence, skill and match practise from the holiday clubs.
He always wants to go whatever the weather and thoroughly enjoys himself every day."
Sacha Cole
"Oliver's 6th Birthday was a blast thanks to the footballing skills of Adrian King!
He instructed, amused and taught a team of 6 year old's on Harpenden Common with Ronaldo chops, Pele sprints, little toe big toes, penalty shoot outs and mini games.
The boys were in their element for a full hour and a half!"
Janice Bissett
"My son, who has just turned 8, has attended several of Adrian's holiday camps and courses and always had a lot of fun.
I therefore booked Adrian for his 7th, and then his 8th, birthday parties.
The holiday courses are well organised and well staffed so I was confident that the parties would be equally successful.
Adrian is very reliable and knows so many of the boys that they settle into the parties very quickly and easily.
At each party I had approximately 25 boys but Adrian and his assistant kept them happy and occupied, doing drills, games and then mini matches.
Despite being very noisy and full on, I always felt that Adrian was in control and the boys were happy to listen to him and do what he said as they were enjoying themselves.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Adrian for parties."
