Overview

Phoenix FC Academy was established in 2021 with the goal of using football as a platform for nurturing young people t become talented sportsmen, sports career professionals as well as leaders within their communities. We currently have a membership of 150 juniors between the ages of 5 years and 15 years drawn from schools across all over Kenya. Our ultimate vision is to establish a residential academy to train young people in a high-performance football academy – a boarding school where students can take part in an intensive professional soccer player training program while receiving a world-class education. Programs: Phoenix FC Academy philosophy is to develop the complete player. Our Programs highly focus on improving individual technique, as well as developing tactical awareness and an understanding of the game as well as leadership skills for each player and across all the age groups. Towards this end, we have developed suitable training programs for players between the ages of 5 years and 15 years by developing competitive teams U5-U15 in line with international standards and practices. Each year we form teams and place them at the level best suited to developing each individual and team’s technical and tactical awareness. Players will after going through the academy’s programs: ▪ Make significant improvements to their individual technique and tactics (individual player development) ▪ Acquire the rhythm and intensity of the game at a high international level (physical and technical skill development) ▪ Learn to play with intelligence and focus (tactical skill development) ▪ Learn to effectively assimilate team tactics (team development) Each team currently trains every Saturday from 8 AM to 1 PM at the Academy’s training grounds situated at Faith Ventures Christian Academy, Garden Estate, off Thika Road.
