The British Football Academy (Singapore) offers the chance for children in Singapore to reach their potential in football. The academy see its players as "children first, football players second", and aims to ensure that children enjoy their experience and develop into well rounded people, whilst also pushing them to improve their football skills.
We have worked tirelessly with our international professional club partners Blackburn Rovers FC to bring what we believe is the best kids development programme in Singapore for boys and girls. Our whole philosophy and coaching programme for our academy is based around the elite category 1 programme that BRFC run in England, which is proven to develop children both with life skills and their footballing abilities. Each area of our programme (academy and elite programme) are bespoke with the elite programme mirroring exactly what the BRFC academy players do on a weekly basis. Take a look and see what we believe in and how we go about teaching it.
