OUR SESSIONS

All of our sessions offer something different but individual development is at the core of everything we do. We want each child to achieve their goals in football and sport. We feel sport and football can teach valuable lessons that can be applied to pretty much any walk of life and so we aim to aid in each individuals growth on and off the pitch.

Development Sessions

Our Development Sessions are designed for everyone, welcoming boys and girls of all skill levels. Players can continue with their grassroots teams while enhancing their training and matches with us, as we strive to help each individual achieve their own unique version of success. Currently, our Development Sessions are available in Tenterden and Ashford, with plans to expand to Dover and the Canterbury area in early 2025. Participants will have the chance to represent their centre in friendly fixtures against other Starters FA Development centres and may even earn a spot in our Advanced invite groups by showcasing their growth and progress.

what They’re Saying

Client Testimonials

I cannot reccommend Starters FA more highly. Having been to many other local academies but not being able to find the right fit for our son, we moved him to starters on the advice of the head scout at the Millwall Academy. Will welcomed Buster in from day one and made him feel extremley comfortable, he takes the time to talk to him at the start of the sessions and takes a real interest in what he’s been up to that week, not just about football. Buster looks forward to every session that he has with Starters, they are well structured & professional whilst maintaining an element of fun and enjoyment. 

Starters has a real family feel to it, the children are taught in a caring & nuturing environment where their individual needs and progression are put first. whether kids are just starting on their football journey or considered elite Starters ensure they are all treated the same. 

Since Buster has been signed to a professional academy, will still takes the time to message us to see how he is progressing & to invite him to any extra sessions.
