School visits take place all over the region with three main clubs. Breakfast Club, which runs for an hour before school. Lunchtime Club, that runs for 45 minutes during school lunchtime and the very popular After School Club, which runs for one hour after school. All of these clubs are for boys and girls, covering all school age years.
These six week programs include coaching on passing, control, dribbling, heading, shooting combined with fun games and small sided matches.
We also offer various other activities that include:
School Health Initiative
AFC Bournemouth Community Sports Trust can offer a two session course run by FA Qualified coaches. The first session is a classroom based interactive lecture on Health and Fitness, Diet and Planning a Coaching Session. The Second session is a practical session which will implement the points learnt during the lecture and classroom activities.
The programme has been developed over a number of years to benefit students who are taking PE as a GCSE subject but can be useful for all students taking part in curriculum PE lessons.
This programme can be held at your school or here at Dean Court. The bonus of holding the course at Dean Court is the Stadium Tour that can be added to give the students an idea of the behind the scenes business attached to running the football club.
Sponsored Skills Days
AFC Bournemouth Community Sports Trust Sponsored Skills Days begin with an introductory assembly where the football coach will explain the Skills Day to the children and answer questions on life as a professional footballer, the skills day will take place following this with the children taking part in 5 football skills, the presentation assembly will compete the event with prizes given out from a draw involving all donation forms.
The money raised will be split between your School and AFC Bournemouth Community Sports Trust which will go towards the work we do with many different community based organisations, including children and adults with Special Educational Needs, Disadvantaged Groups, Special Needs Schools, Adult Day Centres and the many different football festivals organised throughout the season.
Planning, Preparation and Assessment
Our fully FA Qualified, First Aid Trained, CRB checked coaches can take a class for football coaching, offering a variety of structured sessions delivered in a fun but challenging way to include all the fundamentals of basic football.
These sessions can be tailored to include other sports and also the addition of end of term assessments that can be added to individual children's reports.
