1-to-1 Football Coaches
3 verified coaches on CoachSpot
A good 1-to-1 football coach does what a team session can't: all the attention on one player, with the session built around what they specifically need to fix. Private football coaching in the UK typically costs £35–£60 per hour, and sessions usually run on 3G/4G pitches and grass parks. Coaching normally starts from around 5, with structured 1-to-1 work typically from 7+.
Sessions usually cover 1-to-1 technical sessions on ball mastery, first touch and finishing, position-specific work (striker, midfield, defender, goalkeeper) and small-sided game scenarios with a coach on the ball. Ask about warm-up structure and how the coach manages contact — especially for players under 10.

Football coaching FAQ
How much does a 1-to-1 football coach cost?
Typically £35–£60 per hour in the UK. Coaches with academy, county or international backgrounds sit at the top of that range, and block bookings of 5 or 10 sessions usually come at a discount.
How do I choose a football coach?
• Ask which club or age group the coach has worked with — academy background matters more than a big playing CV • Check they can film short clips so parents can see progress • Confirm they'll adapt to your position and preferred foot rather than running a fixed drill set
