YOUR DAY AT THE ACADEMYSO MUCH TO DOTimetable: (Most courses start at 9.00am but some courses may start at 12.00 pm -please check each individual course) 9.00a.m. - I registered at the Academy with my parents, then collected my football top, which I can keep ! I got changed and then went to the classroom for a briefing from the Director of Football. We found out about some of the skills we would be working on. Meanwhile Mum and Dad attended a different group with the other parents, to hear about the work of the Academy. 10.00a.m. - The first training session. This consisted of a warm-up, skills circuits practice and dribbling and turning. 11.00a.m. - Snack break (drink, fruit and energy bar). 11.30a.m. - In the second session we did another warm-up and then more exercises, including a great shooting game. 12.30p.m. - We were served a healthy lunch which included a choice of fresh fruit, salad and yoghurt for pudding. The lunch was included in the price. 1.30p.m. - - Potted sports. This is a number of mini game-related activities. We played these in small teams. 2.15p.m. - We played a tournament between all the World Cup teams. We did really well and came second. 3.30p.m.- Presentation. Everybody who attended the Academy was given a certificate and a medal, which was fab ! At the end of the day we reviewed what we had done with our coach and then went and got changed. It was one of the best days I've ever had. Please note : parents leave after the briefing and are admitted again at 2.00p.m. to watch from the canteen and have a cup of tea. * All times are subject to change.
