The ITFC Charitable Trust’s autumn Holiday Camps run from 28th October-1st November. Every school holiday the Trust runs a range of grassroots level football courses for young people between the ages of 4 and 15 and now new two-day multisport activity camps, which include handball, hockey and basketball sessions, at Ipswich venues.
The multi-sport experience allows children to participate in a variety of other sports including handball, hockey, basketball, as well as taking part in fun football skills training and a small-sided tournament.
The option to extend courses at Ipswich venues, either during the Early Bird 8.30am-10.00am period or Extra Time 3pm-5pm, is also now available when making a course booking.
The football courses give children the chance to develop their skills and make new friends overseen by the Trust’s professional and experienced coaching staff.
They are suitable for children of all abilities aged 4 — 15 and take place at various indoor and outdoor venues, including Ipswich, Kesgrave, Bury St Edmunds, Woodbridge, Felixstowe, Sudbury and Thetford.
The Trust offers a wide range of courses which help the development of each child’s footballing technique, including key skills such as passing, control, tackling and shooting.
Specialist courses, such as goalkeeping training camps, offer a unique opportunity to focus on key techniques such as quick feet and ball distribution, making sure aspiring keepers get a firm grip on how to play their position.
The ITFC Charitable Trust is also very passionate about girls’ football development and therefore a girls-only training camp is offered every school holiday. This is open to girls of all abilities aged between 5 and 13 years.
There is also a three-day Advanced Holiday Camp for young people that offers an intense training programme which will both stretch and challenge the more able footballers.
Players will be closely monitored and supported by our team of experienced FA qualified coaches and take part in a series of drills and games designed to take the players skill to the next level.
The Trust is proud of is its award-winning Ability Counts programme, which offers football activities across Suffolk for children, young people and adults who have learning difficulties, physical disabilities and mental health issues.
Also under the Ability Counts banner is a one-day specialist children’s course which offers those aged from 5 — 13 years football coaching tailored to meet each individual’s specific needs.
The ITFC Charitable Trust also offers the popular Soccer 4’s Club, a course designed specifically for younger children aged 4 — 6 years.
