ETC / Elite Training Centre

Notice to all customers

Rebranding

Over the years, the ETC brand has become widely recognised as the pinnacle of training provider on the South coast and is largely known for its innovative training practises that incorporate game principles and allow for maximum touches, engagement and development.

As with all businesses, we are keen to ensure our brand name represents us as accurately as possible - as such, we have made the decision to rebrand and now operate under the name Total Football Centre.

The term ‘Total Football’ was coined by Dutch coach Rinus Michels whereby all the players could change positions during the game; emphasising all-around skill, versatility, and creativity. We feel this better represents our system and has been a movement behind the scenes for some time.

Moving forward, our social media and web platforms are as follows:

Website: www.totalfootballcentre.co.uk

Twitter: totalfootballce

Our ETC platforms will be deactivated at the end of this month so please ensure you follow the above accounts to remain up-to-date with all happenings and communications.

We look forward to continuing to support your son/daughter in their football development.

Unfortunately we have just arrived at Stoneham Lane to the news that the facility will be closing at 7pm this evening. This is a result of travellers arriving and forcing the immediate closure of the complex. We will credit this session at the end of the next course on Monday 25th July. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and hope this message reaches you in sufficient time. We are sure you understand these circumstances are out of our control.

Many thanks
