“We’ve had an outstanding experience with Orange Soccer football academy. Both of my children attended for many years, My youngest is still there & he absolutely loves it and the quality of coaching and support has been exceptional. The staff are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely care about the development of every player, both on and off the pitch. Training sessions are well-organised, challenging, and fun, which kept my kids motivated and eager to improve. The academy fosters a great sense of teamwork and sportsmanship, and the progress my children made is a testament to the dedication of the coaches. I would highly recommend this Orange Soccer to any family looking for extra coaching outside their grassroots football for a professional yet friendly environment for young footballers to thrive.
Thank you Josh & all the team!!”

“Superb set up and excellent coaches provide a great environment for the children. They are well supervised and quickly learn new game related skills and knowledge. Children are off playing/learning for almost the entire hour. All coaches make children feel welcome and happy to attend. Big thanks to Josh, Luke and all others involved”

“We brought our daughter to Orange soccer as her football confidence was on the floor once something she loved was something she now didn’t feel good enough to do. The guys at Orange Soccer have given her back the love of the game, nurtured her and taught her so many skills safe to say her confidence is back and she’s loving football again. Everyone is so friendly, approachable and they have a great sense of humour she’s even been honoured to have her own nickname. Our girl is back smiling, laughing and enjoying playing the game again. Thank you Orange Soccer!”

“Absolutely fantastic soccer academy run by fantastic people who clearly love what they do, they’ve supported my son over 3 years to build his confidence on and off the pitch. Couldn’t recommend any higher, Josh and the team are excellent and the way the children respond to them is a testament to them”

“My 5 year old son has been going to Orange soccer academy for a few months after a recommendation from another parent and then a trial session, he loves going and he always comes out sweaty and smiling, the coaches make it fun for them. He is learning football skills but he also thoroughly enjoys it and that makes me happy”

“My eldest Daughter has been coming to Orange for a couple of months now and her confidence and skill has improved so much over such a short time. The Coach’s are fantastic. Not only do they teach the kids amazing skills they also make it really fun. You can see every single child throughly enjoys it and has so much respect for the Coach’s. It really is an amazing place and my daughter looks forward to it every week. I’ve since started my younger Daughter here and she feels exactly the same. She’s much more reserved than her older sister and quite new to Football but seeing how confident and happy she is when she’s here makes me so happy. I have nothing but positive things to say about Orange academy and would highly recommend to anyone’s child of any ability. I just can’t wait for my younger son to be able to join now!! I know we will be staying here for as long as we can. Thanks so much to Josh, Luke and Yoda for everything you do”

“I wanted to share my positive experience with the football club where my son has been playing.
When he first joined, my son was quite shy and reserved. It has been truly wonderful to see the positive change. Thanks to the supportive environment of the club, he has significantly gained confidence—not just in football, but across all areas.He absolutely loves attending the sessions. He is always learning a lot of new skills and techniques, and he eagerly awaits his training day every single week. Since his training is only on Wednesdays, that evening has become the highlight of his week! The coaches deserve high praise. They are excellent, dedicated, and truly great with the children, providing both expert guidance and encouragement.
We are so delighted with the club and the positive impact it has had on our son's development. Highly recommended!”

“My son has been part of Orange Soccer Academy for almost 3 years, and it's been an incredible journey. He absolutely loves it! The coaches Josh and Luke are professional, supportive, consistently providing guidance and really know how to bring out the best in each child. We've seen fantastic improvement in his skills, confidence, and overall love for the game. The environment is positive and encouraging, and it's clear the focus is not just on football, but also on teamwork, discipline, and enjoyment. Highly recommend Orange Soccer Academy to any parent looking for a great place for their child to grow both on and off the field”

“Our daughter lost her confidence last year playing football for her team and now thanks to Orange Soccer that’s now returning! New skills being taught and her fully enjoying herself with a great dynamic with playing with boys too! Thanks to all the coaches for their encouragement, sense of humour and nerves of steel! It’s a pleasure to bring her every week!”

“My son has been attending orange soccer for a couple of years now and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. He had completely lost his confidence in all group settings after the covid lock downs and this was the only place that he felt comfortable at for a really long time. That was totally down to how Josh, Callum and now Luke understood what he needed and have help nurture him building his confidence in and out of football. Orange Academy is a very special place with the ability to support each child’s development based on their own needs. You will also often hear parents waiting outside amazed at how well all the kids listen and focus in the sessions with ease due to the respectful environment they set. This is a real credit to Josh and the Orange Academy team”

*****

“My daughter has attended Orange Soccer Academy for the last few months, as extra training aside from grassroots commitments, and wow, what a difference. She absolutely loves it, and that is all down to Josh and the team. These guys have consistently delivered top tier training whilst being supportive and encouraging, top class and highly recommend”

*****

“My boy has been attending Orange for 2 years, the coaches Josh and Luke have been instrumental in his football development, their coaching style is fast-paced and technical in a competitive setting. My boy has gone from not having the confidence to play grass roots football when he started to now working his way up the leagues, I put this down to Orange academy.”

*****

“The best decision i made signing both my daughters up at orange. It has given them both so much confidence to take into their grassroot games. Friday nights under the lights is what both my girls look forward to each week. Shout out to all the coaches!”

*****

“I highly recommend Orange Soccer Academy! My son has trained with Orange Soccer for over 18 months now and absolutely loves it, his confidence and football skills have improved immensely, I cannot thank Josh, Luke and the whole OSA team enough. There is no pressure on the children at all, just learning and improving their skills whilst having fun, as it should be. The holiday clubs are also amazing and fantastic value!”

*****

“Can’t recommend Orange Academy enough. My little boy came looking to develop some strength and master some skills. Josh and Luke were superb with him, challenged him to be better and built his confidence as well as developing a sense of banter!! Shortly after joining he was scouted for Everton and he has taken the skills and his new love of banter with him!! If you’re thinking about joining, my advice would be don’t hesitate!! You won’t regret it”

*****

“Amazing coaching at OSA. Great at building confidence and providing a fantastic environment to develop key football skills. All the coaches communicate well with the players. Explaining drills and tweaking the difficulty level as they go. They work in small groups so they get plenty of time on the ball. We felt welcome on day 1 and they keep the kids engaged and deal with any messing about in a constructive way. All the boys and girls get better every week. What more could you ask for? Highly recommend”

*****

“Highly recommend Orange Soccer Academy. My daughter loves going to the Wednesday night session and it's really helped develop her football skills as well as her confidence. The coaches are all great and make the sessions lots of fun”

*****

“Absolutely loves his Orange Soccer sessions and have fast become one of the highlights of his week! He started knowing no one at all, but through common interest has made a fantastic group of friends! The training has complimented his existing training perfectly, given him confidence on the field and he has started thinking about his game more and more through the training he receives. Couldn’t recommend more!”

*****

“Since starting weekly sessions this year, my son’s confidence has grown massively. His understanding of the game, rules, tactics and ideas have all been so useful to develop him as a player and improve him for his team games. The level of enthusiasm and energy these guys bring to the sessions each week is incredible. I want what they’re having for breakfast! But honestly, I think it’s just a genuine love of what they do and love for football, something which they’re clearly bringing out in every child they teach. It’s the best football skills coaching you can get!”
