Overview
The Games Programme – Play, Progress, Perform
Our Games Programme offers players the perfect balance between training and match experience. Each term, players join a team and take part in a game every two weeks. On non-fixture weeks, they continue to train following our Platform syllabus, developing the key principles of football that can be applied in real match situations.
The programme also provides a pathway into Claygate Royals FC and other local grassroots clubs for players ready to take the next step into competitive football.
Programme Schedule
The Platform Games Programme runs in line with school term time, typically 36 weeks from September to July.
Sessions take place every Saturday morning from 9:00am to 10:00am.
Please note, we do not run sessions during school holidays.
Age & Timings
Saturdays | 9:00am – 10:00am | Years 1–6
The Platform Games Programme is open to boys and girls in Years 1–5 from beginners to players looking for extra game time.
We keep our player to coach ratio low to ensure every child gets the attention they need. Spaces are limited and the programme is extremely popular, often oversubscribed.
If you don’t secure a place right away, we operate a waiting list so you can join as soon as a space becomes available.
