Meet Sam ⚽️📋👏

Sam has been with us for the past few months and has quickly become a favourite across our schools. He delivers high-energy, well-structured sessions that keep children engaged while building real sporting ability.

Sam’s strengths lie in technical football coaching, 1-to-1 and small group sessions, and adapting activities to suit all abilities. He’s also confident and experienced in delivering a range of other sports, making him a strong all-round coach in school settings.

Outside of coaching, Sam enjoys football in his own time, he coaches children 1-1 through his business Ffn Coaching and is currently training in boxing 🥊—bringing discipline, fitness, and a strong mindset into every session he delivers. Calm, confident, and highly relatable, he sets standards and creates a positive environment where children thrive.
