1. Luton Town FC - ‘Technical Football Camps’ Improve your soccer skills!
Our technical football camps are for primary age children (current year 1 to 6) and will be held every week Monday to Friday throughout the summer school holidays.
Each day will be dedicated to a specific technique training, where the main objective is still to have fun – but, to improve individual technical performance.
We’ll be offering professional and fun technical training combined with speed, agility, quickness (SAQ) training for a full, action packed, two hour session.
These specific courses will also offer the potential for progression within our youth development and academy system at the club and are for young players who want to improve their technical football skills.
Children will need to bring a snack and plenty of drinks to the session and wear appropriate clothing and we would ask all parents to apply suncream before dropping off at the centre.
……..and yes, everyone gets a Luton Town FC medal at the end of the course!
2. Luton Town FC - 'Young Leader Award' Learn how to coach!
The Young Leader Award is a great introduction into leadership giving boys and girls knowledge of how to organise and lead small games and activities that can be used as part of a community club or sports club session.
The award aims to help learners develop leadership skills such as organisation, communication and teamwork, as well as helping to build confidence and self-esteem as they take on the responsibility of leading their peers and even younger children.
All boys and girls will receive a Leadership Journal which they can use to record what activities they have done during the course; what they have learnt, what they have enjoyed and what they found most challenging.
Certificates will be awarded by post once boys and girls have completed the core elements of the Young Leader Award and everyone will receive a Luton Town FC medal at the end of the course!
COVID-19 Requirements
To comply with current government guidelines for out of school hours provision during the school holidays all children will have to book the full 5 sessions to ensure everyone remains within a single consistent group ('bubble’) during the week.
Regulations allow for increased groups up to 15 in the holidays with one member of staff minimum. We will have at least two members of staff in attendance at all centres. The full government guidance can be found on the following link for your information.

Children will also be required to observe the 1 metre+ social distancing rule while on the camp and our staff will ensure these guidelines are fully understood by the children and that the technical and learning sessions allow for this.
The sessions will be either two hours in the morning between 10.00 am to midday or two hours in the afternoon 1.00 pm to 3.00 pm Monday to Friday. Children can book a morning 5 day course or a 5 day afternoon course – but not both in the same week.
