I think this academy is all about making money and not teaching kids football and tactics
Every time I was attending my son session I have only seen a crowd of kids whenever the ball was no position on field no tactics
No passing mind sets
No placing kids on the pitch due to what a coach will see the player is better for
To be honest he was better trained on his school session where I thought will be some mediocre learning comparing to a “Pro Football Academy”
Waste of money
The coaches show up there just to get their money into their pockets and that’s it
I know no all the kids are made for sports and football but is a shame that you are crushing some kids dreams for money
My son attended a free trial session with his local academy. Upon arrival the coach said what’s your name. Ok, over there. Then waved him onto the pitch. No introduction. Only two coaches for 18 kids but one coach was just joining in the football and messing about with the kids. The other coach was playing football also. Not at any point did the kids receive any ‘coaching’ or guidance. No drills. Just unstructured games. Coach or kids never spoke to my son once or said goodbye either. Very poor. I’d be fuming if I paid for this monthly. The quality of coaching is the worst I’ve seen. I don’t think they have the right to call themselves ‘pro’ or an academy. Neither are an accurate representation of what they advertise on the internet!
We attended a “free professional football trial class” after seeing their highly polished Instagram ad showing happy, confident children coached by emotionally intelligent trainers. Unfortunately, the real experience was the complete opposite.First, there was no clear information about which ground to go to — despite multiple reminders asking us to confirm attendance. At the venue reception, there was no greeting or guidance, just a dismissive “try 8 or 9.”When we finally found the right ground, my friend’s excited twins went to the gate and waved at the coach to confirm they were in the right place. Instead of a warm welcome, the coach shouted at the child, “Can’t you see we are playing? How did you come in?” The field was overcrowded (40+ kids to one coach) and completely unmonitored.After an hour-long session where the coach barely interacted with the kids, my friend politely asked how his child performed. In front of 20+ kids and parents, the coach responded rudely, saying the child had a “behaviour problem” and “doesn’t listen,” and declared that he was rejected, i wont accept him — all because he had entered the gate earlier in excitement.This was humiliating and deeply upsetting for the child, whose confidence was completely shattered. The coach’s tone was arrogant and unprofessional — far from the emotionally intelligent mentors shown in their ads.If the organisation truly believes in building children’s confidence, they should train their staff properly, ensure DBS checks, and never allow a coach to shame a child publicly. The Instagram video is highly misleading, and if parents saw the reality of how children are treated, no one would sign up.Parents — please be cautious before booking. A “trial class” should build confidence, not destroy it.
Attended 1st trial session last night 10th Feb down at power league Nottingham NG7 one. We left 20 minutes in the coaches were not interested at all not engaging with the kids just put them into a match straight away. The coaches are trying to show the players how to do simple ball mastery skills and can’t do them themselves. Didn’t get the kids engaged at all wasn’t fun for them at all very poor !!
My son attended a trial session, but the experience was not good at all , The coaches arrived ten minutes late, there was no welcome or introduction, and the children largely played football by themselves. Like a casual street football , unfortunately One of the coaches spent the entire session walking around with a coffee Overall and it is so unprofesional , completely unprofessional, and both the coaching and learning environment were very poor.
I should have read the reviews before wasting my time at this place. Took my son for a trial session, nobody to greet you as stated so had to find our own way to the pitch and then find a staff member ourselves. There was one coach to around 30 kids, he just sent them all off to play football amongst themselves, I told him we there for a trial and he just said "you'll receive an email after the session", that was the only interaction me or my son had with any staff member throughout the whole session. So off my son goes to follow the other kids and joins in playing football amongst themselves for the majority of the session. At one point they were told to lay cones out and dribble the ball between them but nobody was even watching them, nobody telling them the best way to go about it, where they were going right or wrong, no encouragement, no coaching, absolutely nothing other than a bunch of kids having an unsupervised kick about...which you can do without paying £58 a month. Never did receive an email from them either, so even if I wanted to sign up to this money grabbing scam I'd have more hassle trying to do so with the lack of communication from them. Thankfully I didn't fall in to the trap of setting up a direct debit and getting scammed like a lot of the other reviews.

I am very disappointed with Pro Football Academy. Despite notifying a coach seven weeks ago that my child would no longer attend, they continued to charge my subscription without proper confirmation or cancellation. Their official policy requires a 30-day notice through their website, but this was never clearly communicated when we signed up. Multiple customers have reported similar issues, suggesting a pattern of taking payments even when children stop attending.This feels misleading and unfair, and I would caution parents to read the fine print carefully before committing. In my experience, the process for cancellation is confusing and seems designed to keep charging fees unnecessarily.
