⚽ Ball at their feet from day one
⚽ Fun, play-based learning
⚽ Build confidence and friendships
⚽ Develop key football and movement skills

BALLER BIRTHDAYS 🎉

When one of our players reached out and told us the way they really wanted to celebrate their birthday was with NextGen, we jumped at the chance to do something different and hosted our first ever birthday party for Lenny 🎉⚽️

What a brilliant day he had. The boys were flying all session, loved the games and challenges, then got stuck into pizza & sweets afterwards before each taking home a medal and a personalised trophy for the birthday boy Lenny🏅🍕⚽️

Seeing the smiles, energy and excitement all day showed exactly what NextGen is all about.

If you’d like something similar for your child’s birthday, get in touch , we’d love to create a special football experience for them too 🙌

Huge shoutout to Coach Leo who was a special request of the Birthday boy and absolutely smashed it! ✨

Another success story 💫

Massive congratulations to Jax on signing his first professional contract with Shrewsbury Town F.C. ✍️⚽️

What a journey this has been. Jax first came into our technical groups before progressing into the advanced sessions, and from day one his attitude, work ethic and hunger to improve stood out.

Week after week he showed up, worked relentlessly and trusted the process. He’s one of our own and we couldn’t be prouder to see him achieve this moment.

A top player, but even more importantly a top kid who fully deserves everything coming his way. I bet he’s glad I pushed him so hard now 😂

This is only the beginning… the stage is yours now Jax. Go write your next chapter 📕🔥

Everyone at NextGen Ballers is proud of you

Introducing our new coaches 👊

You may have already seen them around at sessions over the past few months… now it’s time to properly introduce them.

Both have settled into the NextGen environment brilliantly and have already made a big impact with fantastic feedback from parents and players.
