Acorn Active

---

Acorn Active uses physical activity and football as a tool for confidence, routine and connection.

We create safe, inclusive spaces where children and young people can move, belong and rebuild self belief.

Sessions are designed to support both physical and emotional wellbeing, especially for those who may struggle in traditional sports settings.

Alongside practical sessions, children take part in structured learning and development workshops:

• Football skills and teamwork
• Nutrition and healthy habits
• Coaching 
• Leadership and communication

This creates a 360 degree development programme, supporting children both on and off the pitch.

We deliver regular, structured sessions in safe community venues, supported by experienced coaches.

• Weekly group sessions
• Term time delivery
• Holiday camps
• Large and small group formats
• 1-to-1 Sessions
• Consistent coaches and routines

We aim to create clear progression routes for children as they grow in confidence and ability.

The pathways into:

• Community football clubs
• School sport programmes
• Coaching and refereeing routes
• Further training and qualifications

Our goal is to support each child's individual journey, whether they continue in football or take their skills into education and life.

Acorn Active is delivered in partnership with Tekkers Community Football Club and led by our head coach, Karl Duguid.

Karl brings elite-level knowledge into a community setting, inspiring children though positive role modelling, high quality coaching and supportive approach.

His focus is on helping every child enjoy sport, build confidence and reach their potential.

Session take place at Power League, providing high quality pitches and facilities for our programme.

We are now building our first groups and invite families to register their interest.
