Game situations, coached as individuals.
In performance groups, players face the competition that only comes from playing alongside and against others, and the coaching still looks at each of them on their own.
It is where football IQ gets worked on: problem solving situations on the pitch, at full size.

“She takes on board your coaching on breaking lines, getting in to good positions and positive brave first touches. We have noticed a real improvement and she now often carries the ball forward before making attacking passes.”
“We have seen a significant improvement in [her] understanding of the game, as well as a real growth in her confidence and resilience.”
“Johnny creates an environment for all his players to learn, challenge themselves and try new things, and always keeps it different and fun. If they are willing to learn, you can't get a better coach to help take your child to that next level.”
