1 to 1 Sessions
Our 1 to 1 sessions will enable you to focus on developing key areas of your game. Sportoló Coaches are qualified and are either on their own coaching journey or within the International player pathway. It is possible to have up to 4 players in these sessions (1:1, 1:2, 1:3 & 1:4)
At the time of booking we ask players to identify 3 key areas they want to develop during their 1 to 1 session. These areas for development will be passed onto the coach prior to the session taking place so these points can be focused upon.
Sessions can include video analysis to provide instant feedback to players enabling them to reflect during & after the sessions.
-
The session will therefore be geared around what you wish to focus on to enable all players to maximise their learning.
-
Session format:
-
Players are taken through a detailed warm up at the start of their 1 to 1 session
-
Players will then have 45 minutes with their Coach working on their 3 development areas.
Residential
Camps
Coming soon
Sportoló Life Residential Camps enable players to live & perform like an ‘elite performer’ across the US. These camps are tailored to provide learning throughout the day, on & off the pitch whilst having fun through organised activities & rest during downtime.
Our Boston based residential camps are held at Northeastern University. The campus has state-of-the-art Accommodation, dining & sporting facilities which is the perfect location for our Residential camps.
We design our Residential camps around Technical, Tactical, Physical & Psychological understanding and development. We use specialised experienced coaches/practitioners in all of these areas.
Players will be involved in video analysis meetings during the camp, to understand how this can help them reflect on their performances and gain a greater understanding of tactical elements within gameplay.
