🔥💛 DC UNDER 7 & 8 GROUPS – STARS OF THE WEEK 🖤🔥
Another excellent week from our DC Under 7 & 8 Groups, with the players continuing to show strong progress in both their individual skills and their understanding of the game. ⚽👏
This week, the players revisited the Drag Back and Stop Turn, reinforcing techniques from previous sessions and giving them the opportunity to become more confident using both moves independently.
A key part of the session was the speed dribbling challenge, where the players worked on keeping the ball close, lifting their heads and stopping the ball under control in a target area before changing direction.
We finished with 4v4 and 5v5 Small-Sided Games, where the focus shifted towards formation and positional understanding.
The players worked on maintaining a Diamond shape in 4v4 and an Eagle shape in 5v5, helping them understand how spacing and movement can improve their team play.
⭐ Our Stars of the Week stood out for their effort, attitude, confidence and application, and they should be very proud of themselves.
It is great to see this group developing not just technically, but also in their understanding of shape, space and teamwork as they continue their progression through 5v5 football. 💛🖤⚽
Develop the player. Build the confidence. Inspire the future.
Parents, please help us celebrate this week’s Stars of the Week! 🙌⭐
🔥💛 DC UNDER 6 GROUPS – STARS OF THE WEEK 🖤🔥
Another fantastic week for our DC Under 6 Groups, with the players continuing to show brilliant progress, confidence and enthusiasm.
This week, our Eagles, Hawks and Kestrels were outside working through our DC Under 6 syllabus, while the Falcons continued their development indoors through Futsal.
For the Eagles, Hawks and Kestrels, the focus was on dribbling, running with the ball and recognising space. The players revisited the Drag Back and Stop Turn, worked on Fundamental Movement Skills and Ball Mastery, and learned the important difference between:
⚽ Dribbling – smaller, controlled touches when space is tight or there is danger nearby.
⚽ Running With The Ball – bigger, controlled touches when there is open space to attack.
The players were encouraged to look ahead, recognise space, change speed and understand when they needed to slow down and regain control.
The session finished with 3v3 Small-Sided Games, where the players had the freedom to attack, defend, turn, pass, shoot and make their own decisions. It was great to see them beginning to apply the skills from the session within realistic game situations.
🔥 Meanwhile, our Falcons were inside for Futsal.
Their session focused on dribbling, passing and receiving, with plenty of opportunities to keep the ball close, scan for teammates and develop accurate passing technique.
The Falcons then took their learning into Futsal Small-Sided Games, where the focus was on controlling the ball before playing, spreading out and beginning to understand team shape.
Futsal continues to be an important part of our development programme, giving the players lots of touches, quick decisions and opportunities to become more confident in possession.
⭐ A huge congratulations to all of our Under 6 Stars of the Week from the Eagles, Hawks, Kestrels and Falcons. They stood out for their effort, attitude, confidence and application.
The progress across our Under 6 programme continues to be fantastic to see. 💛🖤⚽
Develop the player. Build the confidence. Inspire the future.
Parents, please help us celebrate this week’s Stars of the Week! 🙌⭐

DC WILDCATS 9–12 GROUP – STARS OF THE WEEK
A huge well done to our DC Wildcats 9–12 Stars of the Week after another strong session from the group!
This week’s focus was Turning, Ball Mastery and Game Understanding, with the girls challenged to improve both their individual technique and their awareness in possession.
The session began with Ball Mastery, working on heel & toe, side-to-side touches, toe taps, advanced toe taps and changes of direction.
The girls also worked on the outside-foot touch and shimmy, with a big emphasis on using both feet and keeping their heads up while performing each skill.
We then moved into an SAQ challenge, developing speed, agility and quickness, before progressing into changing-direction practices where the girls had to keep the ball close, stay under control and recognise when to turn, stop or pass.
The session finished with Small-Sided Games, where the focus moved towards formation and positional understanding.
The girls worked on maintaining a diamond shape in 4v4, helping them understand how good spacing and movement can create better options for teammates.
⭐ Our Stars of the Week stood out for their work rate, attitude, technical quality and application, and they should be very proud of themselves.
It was particularly pleasing to see the girls beginning to connect their individual skills with a better understanding of team shape, movement and decision-making an important part of their continued development.
Develop the player. Build the confidence. Inspire the future.
Parents, please help us celebrate this week’s Stars of the Week! 🙌⭐

DC WILDCATS 5–8 GROUP – STARS OF THE WEEK
A huge well done to our DC Wildcats 5–8 Stars of the Week after another brilliant session!
This week, the girls revisited two important skills from previous sessions; the Drag Back and the Stop Turn. A big focus was on reacting quickly, finding space and keeping their heads up while moving.
The girls also took part in a speed dribbling challenge, working in small teams and focusing on keeping the ball close, looking forward and stopping the ball under control in the target area.
We finished with more Small-Sided Games, giving the girls the opportunity to put their skills into practice and continue developing their understanding of team shape, attacking, defending and decision-making.
⭐ Our Stars of the Week stood out for their effort, attitude, confidence and application, and they should be very proud of themselves.
The progress across the group continues to be fantastic to see, with the girls becoming more confident, more aware and increasingly comfortable on the ball.
Develop the player. Build the confidence. Inspire the future.
Parents, please help us celebrate this week’s Stars of the Week! 🙌⭐
