life skills

For the majority of our ACFC Soccer Academy players, this will be their first time living abroad, separately from their families or guardians. What we try to instill in our players is the ability to live independently, with the skillset to solve problems themselves and to take responsibility for their own lives. 

We have built a solid reputation with clubs, organisations, managers, coaches and players for not only developing high level players, but also for having a team of hard working, eager, respectful, independent players. At ACFC Soccer Academy, our off the field traits are as important as our behaviour on the field. 

To help prepare players for their future journeys, we offer various life skills sessions and workshops, alongside ongoing daily support.  These vary from personal growth classes and mental health awareness sessions, to more professional skills such as CV and application writing sessions, interview techniques and preparation classes, presentation skills, along with media training.
