Our 1-2-1 and 2-2-1 football sessions provide technical coaching to develop a player’s technique and skills. Each session is tailored to the player’s individual needs and goals to ensure the best progression. Not only will the player learn and develop skills, they will have fun doing so and gain confidence for match days!

1-2-1 Sessions

Andrew Brakewell

Alex is really friendly and the coaching looks spot on. My daughter asked me to book more lessons when we got home. Think it will really help her to push on and get better quicker.

Nick Arnold

Alfie really enjoyed his first 1 2 1 session with Alex. Alex showed him the correct way to warm up,and some drills for reactions and speed bursts,then finished up with some defending practice.Alfie will be back.

Amelia  Brakewell

Alex is fantastic.. really good and positive... v encouaging too

Mia Rose

Alex is just brilliant! He has helped my boy so much when it comes to his attitude in the game, the skills he’s teaching him, watching him use them in his matches just goes to show how much he is learning from his sessions. Jackson loves training with Alex & really looks forward to them each week. I can’t thank Alex enough for what he does. I would highly recommend to everyone to book their child in for sessions. 

Amelia  Brakewell 

Amelia loves her sessions.  Alex makes the lesson fun and is an exceptional coach

Katie Joyce

Alex is an outstanding coach who goes above and beyond to make your child feel confident and welcome in his sessions, the kids love him as he is fun but excellent at teaching and developing their skill set. Would 100% recommend! 

Carol Sutherland

Every time Charlie has loved his session and the 1st question is always when can I book the next one! 

Daniel Hunt

First class training from Alex. My son is really enjoying it and the variation in training.

Helen Murray

Before finding Alex my two boys had tried other 1-2-1 coaches and hadn’t enjoyed them. With Alex the experience has been totally different, they’ve loved the sessions, Alex pushes them in such a positive way and they’ve come away from each session buzzing, exhausted (!) and more confident. Would definitely recommend 👍🏻⭐️

Michelle  Kerby 

Alex is an exceptional coach, Matilda is only a few sessions in but has already built such a great rapport. Each session Alex mixes things up and Matilda always comes away learning more and her growing smile is evidently clear just how much she enjoys her time with Alex. He’s a real find, and above all else he’s absolutely brilliant at what he does! 
100 percent recommend his 1-2-1 sessions to any budding footballers wanting to get some extra coaching in. You won’t be disappointed! 

Adam Bellingham

My 11 year old daughter really enjoyed her session will definitely be coming back ! 

James White

Best 1-2-1 coach around, both my boys love his sessions 

Chelsea  Dunthorne 

Amazing ! Doing so much for my son’s confidence .. he loves the sessions with Alex ! He looks forward to them 😊

Dean  SHEPPARD 

Alex was amazing with skyla , had her engaged from the start and she really enjoyed it 

Lynsey  Charles 

Alex is the most amazing coach you could ask for , he is so friendly , approachable and positive. My daughter has improved greatly since coming to Alex with his knowledge and coaching style. Daisy never leaves a session without a smile on her face. I highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their skills outfield or in goal 

Kelly Monk

Alex is a brilliant coach, can’t fault him! Freddie has had 4 training sessions now and with each one he is growing in skill and confidence. It’s lovely to see how at ease Freddie is with Alex now and he can’t wait for his next session. If you’re thinking about booking then do it, you won’t be disappointed!! ⭐️ 

Sammy Adcock

Alex was absolutely fantastic with my daughter, and on the journey back she wouldn’t stop talking about how much fun it was and how she couldn’t wait to book another session. 
Alex’s knowledge was impressive and his whole demeanor was just amazing. 
We’ve booked more sessions and I can’t wait to see Sofia Honey develop. Within just 45 minutes she’s already so confident and has learnt a whole lot of skills. 
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Anna Stevenson

I’ve enjoyed the sessions and am already looking forward to my next one! It has really boosted my confidence 😁

Stephen  Ayres

My son loved it. He got lots out of it.  Very good.

Becky Quiles-Richmond

Didn't know what to expect but our son had a great first session. We were impressed with the equipment used and the 1:2:1 work done with our son. 

Rebecca Turner 

Alex is a good teacher. He has worked out what my son needs help with and is able to give good guidance in a clear friendly manner. His methods and the skills he has got my son working on are good and he is teaching him things that he can easily remember and use in games. 

cody Barnes

Oaklin really enjoyed his session he cannot wait for the next one 😊

Leanne Wright 

Alex is great with my son and he throughly enjoys his sessions would definitely recommend a session with Alex 

Alfie really enjoys his sessions with Alex, They can be tailored to suit any situation, Alfie has had a knee injury recently and Alex was great in tailoring the session to work on building up his stability and confidence.He is looking forward to the next session.

Jade Farley 

Thank you Alex for a fantastic first session with you. Alex made me feel at ease as I haven’t had a 121 GK session like this before. I am looking forward to the next one soon. 


Alpa Mistry

My son had his first 1-2-1 session with Alex yesterday, he absolutely loved it. Alex was brilliant with him, explaining clearly what he needed to do. The session was great fun and my son is looking forward to going again.

Dean Sheppard

Skyla wasn’t feeling 100% and we debated about cancelling , however she soon perked up on arrival thanks to Alex and thoroughly enjoyed her session . Many thanks 

Stephen Ayres

Jenny  Taylor

My 7 year old boy came away from his first 1-2-1 session absolutely buzzing and it was clear Alex had boosted his confidence, so much so he showcased his new and improved foot work skills in his first tournament the very next day. He told me straight away he can’t wait to have another 1-2-1 session. Thank you Alex! 

Amelia Brakewell 

Amelia really enjoys her sessions and is hoping to book more.

Danny  Blake

Alfie really looks forward to his sessions with Alex, and always finishes feeling inspired to continue training at home and take his game to the next level

Rosina Doidge

My 5 and 7 year old have so much fun and great for building confidence while learning some ball skills

Sally  Smith 

Brilliant first session, Alex was professional, kind, supportive, his ability to get my son to achieve things his team hadn’t managed in two seasons was amazing, definitely booking more sessions. 

Shailesh Subedi

My son Harry, absolutely loved his first 1-2-1 session with Alex. We have already booked second session! 

Sophie Moppett

The 1-2-1 sessions are perfect for my son who has coordination difficulties. It is giving him the confidence to get into football more and look to join a football team in the future. Alex is brilliant and my son cannot get enough, apparently 45 minutes isn't long enough :)

Megan Haselton

My little boy had his first 1:1 session this week and came away so happy. He absolutely loved it, we can’t wait to book again. 

Jade  Farley 

Sessions with Alex are so much fun !! He always makes me laugh as he tired to score against me. I love the drills he does for me as keeps me on my toes. Thanks 

Rianna Smith

Alex was great with Henry, explaining what they would be working on and why, encouraging him and being positive throughout. Henry can’t wait for the next session 😊

Emily  Trippett 

My son isn’t keen on training but he really enjoyed his 1-2-1 session with Alex! He was so good with him and he can’t wait to go again! Highly recommend! 

Lewis Brady

Kids love their sessions and respond well to Alex who offers plenty of encouragement and positivity whilst pushing them to improve.

Lewis Jones 

Awesome job!! My daughter’s confidence has grown so much and she really enjoys 121 coaching that is tailored to her and her field position. 

Kelly Whiting

Alex's 1:1 sessions have really helped my son's confidence & technique, I would 100% recommend and will be booking again

Ted Evans

In the short period we have been attending FBA we have seen a vast improvement in Teds technical ability and in game performances. Alex has been superb with supporting Ted with this. Alex has great communication and engagement with Ted and helps him break it down which in turn allows him to understand what the skill or drill is that’s being asked.  Enjoyable and fun sessions which I would recommend to any parent who is considering 1-2-1 coaching .

Alison Rodwell

My son Noah has now had 2 sessions with Alex and has loved them! Alex tailors the sessions to Noah’s playing position and works to his strengths but also building his weaknesses. Noah comes home thoroughly enjoying and loving the sessions and says how fun they are but also a good challenge.
Alex is so engaging with Noah and clearly enjoys what he does.
We have more sessions booked and are looking forward to them already. If your child loves football then I highly recommend! 

Jack Marshall

Our 2 grandsons (13/12) thoroughly  enjoyed their 2 on 1 session with Alex and benefitted from his great and empathetic coaching.

Stacey Edwards

A lovely 1-2-1 lesson. Great way to get focus on one child and to improve skills. We really enjoyed it and will be booking more. Alex has a great way with children 

Joshua  Squire

Great session! Alex was great with josh. Very enjoyable to watch

Chloe Snedker

My son had his first 121 session with Alex and he absolutely loved it!! Alex is professional, has a great way with kids and knows his stuff! My son has learnt so much in just one session- will be coming back once a week! Thanks so much 

Katie Croll-Knight

We did some private lessons with Alex over the summer and my son loved them. Alex was great at putting my anxious son (5) at ease and he gained confidence as well as new skills. 

Laurie  Barker 

Really friendly environment, would definitely recommend 

Jane Blyth

Excellent Jesse's confidence improving every session 

Matthew  Kett

Alex was great, made my little boy Riley feel at ease straight away. The drills and training kept him interested for the whole session. I Can definitely see the value Alex’s coaching will add to any one’s game. We will be booking more sessions going forward. 

Eloise Marlow

Alex used to coach my son last season and helped him so much and improve his skill in the game so much so my son signed a contract to play in the junior premier league. Alex is based in Norwich full time now so we had to stop. I booked in with Alex for a one off in half term and it was great. Thank you Alex for everything you have done for Theo. 

Rebecca Tirner

A great teacher - my son has learned lots from his sessions that he has used on the pitch in games for his team.  We have finished our sessions now as my son is going into his GCSE’s but I’m sure he could have learned lots more. Thanks 

Heidi Lanchbury

Alex is really professional and great with the children. My boys really enjoy their sessions with him and their game has improved

Ruth Dye

Alex is a brilliant coach. He is so friendly and makes the sessions so much fun that the kids don't realise how hard they are working. He works on repetition of skills and using the less favoured foot so that these things become second nature, and my daughter has progressed hugely since starting to train with him which is really increasing her self-confidence and improving her play in her grassroots team. We have had 1-2-1 and 2-2-1 sessions, and Alex adapts everything to suit how the session is going to get the most out of it. Thank you Alex!

Adriana Gabor

My 5yo had the best time with Alex. He’s such a good coach, every session it’s a fun session. 

Claire  Forkes

My son just had his 3rd session and I can already see an improvement on his technique. He always leaves so  happy and positive every time ☺️

Beverley Knox

My son is keen to boost his footy skills and has loved his 1:1 sessions with Alex. It has been a real boost to his confidence and great to see the enjoyment he gets from each session. 

Finley  Parnell 

Alex is fantastic. Not only is he a great coach but a top guy too. Both my sons love his sessions and always look forward to the next one. 

Nathan Bell

My son Hugo absolutely loved his 1 to 1 training with Alex. Top coach. Will definitely return 

Lisa Utting

Both of my boys have been attending with Alex. One of whom has special needs. Alex listened to what was needed for him and as a result both boys thoroughly enjoyed their first lesson and are really looking forward to their next one.

Emma  Dennis 

Great experience for my boys, will be rebooking more sessions. Thank you to Alex for being patient . 

Jackie Fowler

A great 1-1 focused session with Alex on goalkeeping, very focussed and hardworking,  my son got loads of value from it and looking forward to the next one!

Andy Ribbens

The session was really beneficial for me as I was just getting back into football after a rocky season. Alex was really kind when meeting him for the first time. He set up challenging drills which really helped me build up a good base for continuing to improve. The session was fun and I had constant feedback which helped me adjust my technique whilst still training. 

Ryan Burnell

Alex has helped my son's confidence, fitness and skills. He has had several 1-2-1 sessions and after the first few, his goal scoring has significantly increased.

Jamie  McDonald 

My son Jake loved his first session with Alex!
Very welcoming, will definitely try to book on again

Lauren Perkins

Fantastic, we have booked our son for some more sessions! Jordan was great with him and so encouraging. Thank you.

James Ayton

Alex and Jordan are fantastic in what that do. We have done a few 1-2-1 sessions with different coaches and these have set the bar high. Not only the highest quality in terms of coaching but also how they had my lad feel comfortable from the start. I just wish we could split these into two so more sessions were available as they are in high demand! 

Finley  Postle

Helping to increase my confidence in the 1 to 1 sessions I have with Alex!! 

Steven Burgess

Great 1–2-1 with Jordon. My boy enjoyed it and will be booking more. Thank you. 

Jamie Nielsen

Our son absolutely loves his 1:1 sessions with Alex. Not only is Alex very knowledgeable and personable, he takes the time to know and understand the player in front of him! Thank you Alex! 

Katie  Brooke 

Boys really enjoyed their session with Josh 
Came away buzzing will definitely book again! 

Louie Bunker 

I love my sessions with Alex because he’s really nice and funny.

Since my son has started with Alex he has progressed so much, Alex is brilliant at picking up on things that he needs to work on and pushes him to do his best.

Highly recommend :) 

Lee Goldsworthy 

Great session. My son continues to learn new skills and build confidence . 

Luke McClure 

Thoroughly enjoys the Technical Group Sessions with Alex. High quality coaching you won't find elsewhere, that really takes the time to get to know your child and help them develop. 

Private Sessions

James Marshall-Love

Jordan was excellent with Cassy, really enjoyable session and worked well with his passing, movement and shooting technique.

Ollie  Byrne

Both Alex and Josh have given Ollie confidence and self belief. His football skills have increased so much thanks to FBA. Highly recommend to all!

Hannah  Knight

My son has been training with Alex and Josh for both one-to-one and group football sessions, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the progress he’s made. Both coaches are incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about helping young players improve. Theycreated a fun and encouraging environment that keeps my son motivated and excited for every session. It’s been amazing to see how much my son’s skills, understanding of the game, and confidence have grown under their guidance. I’d highly recommend [Coach 1’s name] and [Coach 2’s name] to any parent looking for coaches who truly care about their players’ development both on and off the pitch

Alina Arhire

We’re incredibly grateful for everything Coach Alex has done for our son. Alex brings the perfect balance of professionalism, encouragement, and genuine care to every session. Patrick always looks forward to both his 1-1 sessions and the group sessions—he comes home more confident, more motivated, and excited to show us what he’s learned.

Alex has a fantastic way of challenging Patrick while also celebrating his progress, and it’s been amazing to see how much his skills, mindset, and love for the game have grown. The sessions are always well-structured, positive, and tailored to help him improve not just as a player, but as a young person.

Thank you, Alex, for your dedication, patience, and passion. It truly makes a difference, and we couldn’t be happier with the impact you’ve had on Patrick’s development and confidence both on and off the pitch.

James  Marshall-Love

Alex is great with Cassy and its great seeing  the progress he is making
