After School Programmes

Boys and Girls ages (5-8) (9-12) (13-15)

Samba Soccer Schools work in partnership with local schools to deliver high quality and professional coaching during and after the school day. These programmes focus on teaching young children the basic skills and technique of Brazilian football, and encourage them to perform these without the fear of making mistakes. Drills are tailored towards the age and ability of participants, to ensure they not only enjoy the program, but feel a sense of challenge and growth from playing the Samba Soccer Way. Moreover, most children from primary schools are unfamiliar with Brazilian football. We believe that by coaching them the principles behind Samba football and conditioning them to play creatively from an early age will generate a wave of talented young players who can work their way up the youth system.

We cover schools and colleges in Kenilworth, Warwick, Leamington and Coventry. These programmes usually run for 6 weeks throughout term time.

"Coach Nilio's natural ability to communicate effectively with children of all ages and his coaching team has inspired children to become conscious and confident in their own abilities. Amongst many other qualities, Coach Nilio's ability to inspire and lead has allowed children from different backgrounds to practice and perfect skills and game play without fear."

Testimonials
Alan Wilkinson

"I had the pleasure, along with other Councillors, of attending Leamington's Samba Soccer School. The programme had attracted some forty children from one of the most challenging areas in south Warwickshire. It was wonderful to see their confidence and self-assurance, never mind their dazzling football skills.

It is good to be reminded that "every child matters" and that there are people like Nilio who are willing to put in time and effort to turn around young people's lives, such that they are then given a fair chance to fulfil their potential.

I salute Coach Nilio and wish him every success. He is a remarkable young man."

Alan Wilkinson, Mayor of Royal Leamington Spa

"Our son Sam attended the Samba Soccer School and he absolutely loved it.. Normally he is apprehensive about going somewhere where he doesn't know any other kids.
