Starting next week we will be holding pre-match FA Skills training for youth teams at home first team games. The first team to participate in this new initiative will be our own Under 11's team prior to our League Cup Group game with Mauritius Sports next Tuesday (August 10th).
All youth teams for both girls and boys are very welcome to apply for one of the events.
At each event the teams will be received by the first team coach a couple of hours before kick-off.
Training on the pitch will be technical and tactical fun sessions, that we hope will improve team and individual performance. Match practice will be a major part of the session.
Teams will be on the pitch for one hour, prior to kick-off with a rest off the pitch until half time where they will take part in a penalty competition. All results and photos will be put on this website.

To secure a place for a team please email the club via secretary@barking-fc.co.uk. All coaching is free but a returnable deposit of £15 is required (cheques made payable to Barking FC). This will ensure that teams turn up to the event and stops disappointment for other teams.
