⚽️ As the school year begins to draw to a close, we wanted to take a moment to say thank you. ⚽️
With only a handful of after-school club sessions remaining, we have been blown away by the incredible support we have received throughout the year.
September 2025 marked the launch of our very first year of GM Coaching after-school clubs. Like any new venture, there was uncertainty around how many children would attend and whether schools would buy into what we were trying to achieve.
Fast forward to today and the results have exceeded all expectations.
Over the course of the year, we have delivered sessions to hundreds of children across five schools, regularly welcomed over 100 children per week to our programmes, launched successful holiday camps, and seen many players progress into additional coaching opportunities outside of school.
What makes us most proud, however, isn’t the numbers. It’s seeing children grow in confidence, improve their skills, make new friends, and develop a genuine love for being active and playing football.
A huge thank you to our partner schools:
🏫 Ballyvester Primary School
🏫 Loughries Integrated Primary School
🏫 Kircubbin Integrated Primary School
🏫 Kirkistown Primary School
🏫 Victoria Primary School
We are delighted that all five schools will be returning next year, providing a fantastic platform to continue building on what has been an outstanding first year.
To every parent who trusted us, every teacher who supported us, and every child who attended a session — thank you. Your support has helped turn an idea into a thriving coaching programme that continues to grow.
We are incredibly excited about the future and cannot wait to see what the 2026/27 school year brings.
💙💛 Year One Complete. The journey is only just beginning. 💙💛
