What's Included

Speed & Agility Training

Acceleration Mechanics

Sprint technique, first-step quickness and explosive starts — the moments that create and prevent chances.

Change of Direction

Sharp, balanced direction changes that translate straight into dribbling, defending and pressing.

Deceleration Control

Stopping well is as important as running fast — we build the control that prevents injury and creates sharper turns.

Football-Specific Drills

Sessions use a ball where it makes sense — speed is meaningless unless it works with the game.

Age-Appropriate Loads

Load is carefully matched to age and growth stage — safe, sustainable athletic development.

Herts · Beds · Bucks

Sessions delivered at your pitch, park or sports field across Hemel Hempstead, Watford, St Albans and beyond.

The Difference

Why Choose Our Speed & Agility Training

Faster to the Ball

Players who accelerate well win more 50/50s and arrive in spaces faster than their opponents.

Sharper Turns

Football agility means changing direction in tight spaces with the ball — the most decisive skill of the modern game.

Injury Resilience

Deceleration control and movement quality reduce the risk of growth-related and soft-tissue injuries in young players.

Pairs With Technical Coaching

Speed work sharpens the physical base 1-to-1 technical coaching builds on top of.

Phase-Appropriate Training

Load, plyometrics and intensity are matched to the child's age and growth stage — not a one-size template.

Visible Progress

We time key movements and track agility markers so you can see the athletic progress happening alongside the technical work.

Speed & Agility Training FAQ

FAQ

What is football speed and agility training?

Football speed and agility training develops the specific athletic qualities the modern game rewards — acceleration, deceleration control, change of direction and explosive movement — through football-specific drills, not generic sprinting.

Is this safe for young players?

Yes — sessions are matched to the child's age and growth stage. We avoid heavy loading in the youngest ages and build movement quality progressively.

What ages is speed training for?

Movement quality training works for all ages; structured speed and agility is best from around age 9 onwards once the player can absorb and apply technical cues.

Will speed training make my child faster?

With consistent work over 6-12 weeks, players typically show measurable improvements in acceleration and change of direction — timed and tracked so you can see it.

Does speed work help reduce injury?

Yes — quality deceleration work and movement mechanics meaningfully reduce the risk of growth-related and soft-tissue injuries in young athletes.

How much does speed training cost?

A taster is £25, a dedicated 45 minute speed and agility session is £50, and a block of 5 sessions is £225.

Do sessions use a ball?

Yes — football-specific speed means working with the ball where it matters, not running alone in straight lines.

Where do speed sessions happen?

We bring the cones and drills to your pitch, park or sports field across Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire.
