What families say

Word from the touchline

Feedback from a grandparent whose grandson joined a two-day camp.

We honestly can't recommend James Beattie Football Academy enough! Our daughter was incredibly nervous before her first camp, but she came home with the biggest smile on her face and immediately asked when she could go back. A special shout out to Andy, who is absolutely incredible with the children.

A huge thank you for the last 3 days. It is the first time my son has ever attended a football camp. He, and all of his friends, had the absolute best time! So professionally run, organised, welcoming and great fun!

My son has just joined the U11 training academy and today he and my step son went along to the school holiday camp. They both had a brilliant day. Making the trips over from the Isle of Wight is 100% worth it to see the boys' faces beaming with pride and confidence.

The coaches are really friendly, professional and organised. Great way to keep them entertained over the school holidays and for a good price. He's already asking to go next time. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely brilliant 4 days for my son at the first session in Winchester. Every day was filled with different aspects of the game mingled with fun and competitions! He came home with a smile on his face and full of praise for the coaches. Massive thanks to the legend James Beattie and his excellent team.
