Bright Boots Community

Community Sessions

We host community football sessions every Wednesday for primary school aged children (Yr 1-6). The aim of these sessions is to inspire & foster a love for football through lots of fun games with a technical football focus. We have seen a huge increase in children’s social skills, confidence & football understanding at these sessions. Children of all abilities & experiences are welcome! To learn more & book your child’s place please click below..

Camps

Our popular half-term football camps are delivered at every half-term from October to the Summer holidays. Children will be challenged in a training session on a ‘theme of the day’ by our UEFA & FA qualified coaches. After practicing their skills there are always very competitive tournaments with prizes to be won. We award players of the week with a ‘golden boot’ trophy for displaying our 5 Core Values (Respect, Resilience, Positivity, Teamwork & Willingness to Learn) opposed to footballing ability as we value the importance of developing a positive attitude over how many goals you can score. Children of all abilities & experiences are welcome! To learn more about our future camps & book your child’s place please click below.

Bright Boots Partners

We are always looking for organisations to partner & grow with. From charities to grassroots clubs, we want to support as many people as we can through football. If you like our ethos and want to join forces, you can enquire about a partnership by contacting us today.

Bright Boots Girls

Girls Only Football

After the success of the Lionesses in recent years, we want to increase participation and see if we can the next Beth Mead, Mary Earps or Leah Williamson. All girls are welcome at 1-2-1’s, football camps & popular Wednesday Girls Only Group Session. We are also planning more girls’ sessions in future so please contact us if you’re interested or find out more or book now..

Girls Development Squads

We hope to launch Girls Development Squads in 2024! Girls will be coached by FA & UEFA qualified coaches, play monthly fixtures against grassroots clubs and receive reports to monitor their achievements & future challenges. To register early interest please contact us today.

Bright Boots Schools

We offer school sports clubs and P.E support for primary & secondary schools in Essex. We currently work with multiple primary schools in Basildon and have built great relationships by providing additional weekly clubs for children to enjoy. If your child’s school is lacking sports club options or you work at a school which is searching for an external provider of sports clubs, please contact us today.

Bright Boots Goalkeeping

Bright Gloves

Our goalkeeper only sessions will be coming soon in 2024! We plan on delivering 1-2-1’s, small groups & goalie wars tournaments! To register early interest please contact us today.

Bright Boots Development

Development Squads

These sessions will develop the Bright Boots Core Values as well as aiming to progress children along the Bright Boots player pathway and develop skills across the FA’s 4 Corner Model: Physical, Social, Psychological & Technical/Tactical. In addition to weekly training from FA & UEFA qualified coaches, children will also play monthly fixtures against grassroots clubs and receive reports to monitor their achievements & future challenges. To learn more & book your child’s place please click below..

1-2-1’s & Small Groups

Our 1-2-1 coaching service is designed for the player. Our coaches will develop a programme of learning to suit our players learning styles, which areas they aspire to work on and match their goals to work alongside the player. We believe that 1-2-1 coaching benefits player development as there is a higher attention to detail than a team coaching session. To learn more about our future camps & book your child’s place please contact us today.

Youth Development Phase

These sessions are aimed to progress secondary school aged children towards their football potential through in-depth and engaging coaching from UEFA qualified coaches. We can support your child develop the necessary technical ability & tactical understanding to reach the top of their game.
