Below is a selection of testimonials from Clubs, Schools and Parents who have been very happy with the services we provide:
Clubs
Mr Darren Ferguson – Doncaster Rover FC Manager
I have witnessed the coaching staff at One Touch Football deliver sessions for the children, the sessions are well organized and delivered well to the relevant ages. All staff have a good manner with the children and are very approachable. There sessions are well structured, progressive and fun and the staff have the ability to keep control in a relaxed way.
Schools
Mrs E Spridgens, Stamford Junior School
The children really enjoyed the club and it gave them an opportunity to develop their skills. One of the girls stated that she felt that the coaches were sensitive to her wish to not play again boys in games. All stated that they would love the club to return in the future.
Malcolm Shore, St annes primary school
Glenn has been working closely with us at St Anne's for four years now, providing coaching in a wide range of sports throughout Key Stage 2. The quality of the coaching he provides is second to none and enables our children to fully access the complete breadth of the PE curriculum. He also provides an after school club for children as young as Reception class which is consistently well attended and which the children thoroughly enjoy. We are also looking forward to utilising some of his in-class lessons next year too in our Year 3 class. At a time when many sports providers are dramatically upping their prices, One Touch Football have consistently priced their support at a fair level and consequently they are the organisation we would recommend to enhance your PE provision above all others in the area.
J. Clack, Headteacher, Grt Ponton Primary School
In the Autumn term of 2011 we decided to employ the services of One Touch Football to come and run a club for our footballers. In particular we were keen for our regular football team players to have some coaching experience that would allow them to concentrate on their skills and more importantly their team work and team spirit. In previous seasons our players have played many matches in the small schools league and achieved nothing better than a draw and in most cases a defeat. However, this season has been very different with our team winning 6 of their 7 games and losing just the one. Having scored 23 goals and conceding only 6 the players’ confidence is now sky high and they play with both skill and excellent team spirit. We would like to thank One Touch Football for their input this season and we look forward to continued success.
F. McNeil, Stanground St John School
We have been really impressed with Glenn and are really pleased with the outcome and organisation of his lessons during curriculum time and the children really enjoy themselves too!
Zoe Chappell, PE Leader, Malcolm Sargent Primary School
Glenn and his coaching staff have a thoroughly professional approach and has enabled our football team to approach each match they play fully prepared.
Lars Phillips, Head of PE and Games, Stamford Junior School
Glenn is now in his second year of running two football sessions at Stamford Junior School. He takes a half hour session for Y2’s during a lunch break and an hour’s session for Y3’s / Y4’s combined after school. Glenn has been very reliable and punctual, he is well organised, well turned out, well equipped and he communicates well with both the children and with me to let me know how things are going. His sessions are well structured, progressive and fun and he has the ability to keep control in a relaxed way. He has made a significant contribution to the skill level of the children and his sessions are enjoyable and varied. To his credit, Glenn has agreed to organise a football related session at our forthcoming Parent’s Association Family Fun Day at the beginning of May.
Great Casterton & Empingham Primary Schools
Glenn has been providing high quality coaching at Great Casterton Primary School and Empingham Primary School for four years. His clubs are always well attended by pupils of all ages, both boys and girls. Glenn is able to manage the range of children well, and he makes the coaching fun as well as challenging for older children. I am confident in recommending Glenn as his enthusiasm is infectious, he is firm but fair and he is respected by children and parents alike.
Parents
Nicola Kettleborough & Dan Kettleborough (Under 8 team)
One Touch Football has been nothing but outstanding to say the least. The club has given my son "Dan" the oppotunity to pursue a dream career in a sports environment, which is excellent. The club is very down-to-earth and as well as acquiring football skills the youngsters are building on their people skills, which is fantastic when they are at such a young impressionable age. This club offers not only the opportunity to learn skills that will enable you to become a very good player, but also provides positive role models and a chance to make good friends.
Paul Walker
Matthew started soccer tots in 2009. He looks forward to his weekly training session, with Jake and Glenn. The sessions are organised, fun and carried out by experienced, patient and reliable coaches. Football skills are practiced at a level suitable for the children’s age and abilities. The children also learn important life skills, communication, sharing and working as a team. We would recommend these training sessions to anyone who has younger children.
