Fifa 5's (6 - 11 years)
FIFA 5's has been developed by the Skills Academy to allow more match play in sessions, closer control and developing stronger habits in football in order to progress towards a higher goal.
FIFA 5's concentrates on techniques used in Futsal, FIFA's official version of five-a-side football, using a smaller heavier ball. Futsal is a skill based game with minimum contact played by the likes of Ronaldinho and Messi, it encourages young stars to think quickly and deal with pressured situations in football that directly relate to eleven-a-side football. The game is suitable and enjoyable for boys and girls of all abilities.
Skills Academy is a top ambassador for this unique game, with the company's Director Mike Delaney having played for England promoting its benefits to young players.
