Football Training in Woolwich for Children aged 5-13

Brazilian-inspired football coaching for boys and girls in Years 1–8 at Mulgrave Primary School.

The R81 Football Tuesday Development Programme helps children build confidence, improve their skills and enjoy learning the game through small-sided football sessions. Based in Woolwich and close to Plumstead, Thamesmead, Blackheath, Shooters Hill, Charlton and Kidbrooke, our sessions give children more touches, more decisions and more chances to dribble, pass, shoot and express themselves on the ball.

Book your child’s £5 trial and let them experience R81 Football.
