PLAYERS OF THE WEEK ⚽️🏆

This week’s focus — encouraging our players to attack with urgency, make smart decisions and use movement to create opportunities for themselves and their teammates.

A brilliant session with plenty of creativity, confidence and positive attacking play on show. 👏

A special shoutout to this week’s Players of the Week, who really stood out in putting those key objectives into practice! ⭐️

Keep working, keep learning and keep expressing yourselves on the ball. ⚽️

Today’s session will challenge players to recognise opportunities to attack quickly, make smart decisions with their movement and create overloads in key areas.

We’ll be encouraging forward movement, positive support play and plenty of creativity and individuality on the ball.

See you later! 👊⚽️

⚽🔥 | Speed. Strength. Agility. Confidence.

This Sunday, we’re combining athletic development with competitive mini games — helping players move better, react quicker and play with confidence.

We’re also delighted to have Tim Gallagher, now part of the coaching team, joining today’s session and bringing his experience in athletic development to the players.

High energy. Quick decisions. Plenty of touches. Plenty of competition.

See you all pitch side later!

NEW TO THE TEAM ⚡️

We’re delighted to welcome Tim Gallagher to the Stuart Dallas Academy coaching team, joining us from this Sunday.

Tim brings over 10 years’ experience working with young athletes and footballers, specialising in developing speed, agility, power and movement — physical qualities that can make a real difference on the pitch.

He’s worked across academy, scholarship and professional environments, and we’re really excited to bring that experience into our sessions.

Perfect timing too, as this Sunday’s theme is Athletic Development + Mini Games.

A brilliant addition to the team and another way we’re continuing to develop the complete player. ⚽️
