About Us!

A message from our founder…
As a UEFA A-licensed football coach 25 years of experience, I’ve seen first hand the transformative power of elite-level skill development in young players. This passion for coaching and player improvement is what inspired me to found Perform Football, a specialised coaching program dedicated to helping children reach their full potential on the pitch through a personalised series of detailed sessions. KPI’s will be proven and map improvement, talent ID with recruitment at professional clubs. (note that children going into development or advanced centres will not be progressing).

Praise for Chris
My three children attended a session where Chris was coaching. Chris took the time to provide individual feedback that was accurate and informative. Chris’ feedback led to real improvements in their development. Chris also arranged for my son to attend a talent ID day at a professional academy and showed genuine interest in helping him progress in the club’s player development pathway.”
