WHAT WE DO

TO DEVELOP PLAYERS

Holbeach United Football & Education Academy's Junior Premier League Team Programme has been professionally structured into a curriculum that involves monthly technical modules which are delivered over the course of the year.

​

Each module lasts between 2 to 3 weeks to ensure that progression can be seen and measured.

​

Each week, sessions are structured to pluck apart the main module topic into smaller segments, this allows for attention to detail and players technical advancements and understanding of core modules.
