The camp program
Training
To suit your needs, Arsenal offers 2 different programs:
- 100% Football camp with over 30 hours of training sessions a week. 3 hours in the morning, 3 hours in the afternoon, where the campers will work on the four main aspects of football: technical, tactical, mental and physical
- “Language + Football” camp which combines 15 hours of training sessions with 15 hours of English classes
All campers follow the same schedule with the morning training session. During this three hour session, they will focus on technical agility, dribbling, ball control, positioning on the pitch, passing and possession in tight areas. 100% Football campers will have another 3 hours of training in the afternoon while the rest will go to class and work on their grammar, vocabulary, comprehension and conversation skills.
All training sessions have been designed by the Technical Director of Arsenal Football Development and have been created to “Play the Arsenal Way”. They are guided by the same philosophy that guides the Arsenal Academy. As well as on the pitch training sessions, the kids will also learn about nutrition, recovery and rest, intelligence on the pitch, how to prevent injuries and vision on the pitch. There will also be an emphasis on self-confidence, communication with teammates and concentration.
If your child is a goalkeeper, that’s great. Arsenal FC also has a special Goalkeeper training program (only at Seaford). They will have both individual and group sessions dedicated to keepers.
Coaches and coaching method
The camp methodology comes straight from the Arsenal Academy and aims to “Play the Arsenal Way”. The technical director of Arsenal Football Development designed the program for these camps and all the coaches are perfectly positioned to follow the methodology. The program is based on tests of individual performance: this will help the players learn what their weaknesses and strengths are so that they can better improve them.
All the coaches have UEFA B qualifications and English Football Association Youth certificates. It is extremely difficult to become an Arsenal Football Development and all those who succeed have immersed themselves in the Arsenal philosophy. A progress certificate will be given by each coach at the end of the camp so that parents can see how they child improved.
Staff and activities
24 hours a day, 7 days a week a team of staff will supervise the campers.
Throughout the week, the kids will have free time and they will take part in activities to fill this free time. A team of staff members will ensure that the campers enjoy themselves and organise these activities.
Trips and days out
These camps take place in a magnificent setting, with each campus more beautiful than the last. To make the camp even more memorable, children that stay for two weeks will have two trips organised for the weekend between camps:
- A tour of the legendary Emirates Stadium: Arsenal’s home
- A trip to London and sightseeing its historical monuments like Big Ben or Buckingham Palace
These unforgettable memories will provide a lovely break between two weeks of football and English class.
