Inside the Programme: Professional Training for Aspiring Footballers
Led by UEFA A Licence coach Kai Brock, whose pedigree in Bundesliga youth development is second to none, the programme promises far more than ordinary after-school football. Young athletes aged 6 to 11—from both GSIS and non-GSIS backgrounds—are welcome to join an elite curriculum that balances:
- Technical mastery: Ball control, footwork and shooting skills honed through age-appropriate drills
- Tactical understanding: Modern game awareness, teamwork and on-field decision making
- Football passion: Encouraging a love for the game in a supportive, energetic environment
- Physical development: Agility, coordination and all-round fitness, promoted through structured sessions
Each week, players in the U8 (ages 6-7), U10 (ages 8-9), and U12 (ages 10-11) categories will enjoy two to three engaging training sessions, featuring competitive matches to test and showcase progress, with fees starting at $25,800 for the school year. Every participant will receive a complete set of premium PUMA training gear—a hallmark of professionalism on and off the pitch.
