MEET OUR COACHES
At the Independent Football Academy we are proud to have the best coaching staff in the South West. All our coaches have years of experience and are dedicated to helping each of our players gain vital experience in order to improve and one day, gain the opportunity of having trials at a top professional category one or two academy.
Our coaches are responsibly for teaching the IFA coaching syllabus and maintaining the high levels of performance that we aim to achieve as an academy. Coaches work with the same players and age groups week in week out, in order to build strong relationships and consistency, they are responsible for keeping player profiles and monthly reports up to date in your child’s member area. All our coaches have gained FA coaching qualifications and are CRB (DBS) checked.
