Coaching Philosophy

  • Our Club is proud to have its own coaching philosophy. The aim of our philosophy is to establish a distinct Garforth Villa Football Club culture based on clear values and beliefs. Our aim is for all those who wear our kit - including coaches and players – to be consistent in the way they work and behave, both on and off the pitch.

  • The long-term aim of our philosophy is to create the best possible footballing learning environment to equip our boys and girls with the tools and skills to go and play at the highest level possible.  We want to create technically proficient players, who understand the game and make good decisions.

  • To help to achieve this aim, we will seek to create an environment that allows them to develop and enjoy what they are doing. Our teams will be prepared and encouraged to win games, tournaments and competitions at every level. Winning is a crucial part of a players development journey and success at development level breeds confidence for winning now and in the future.

  • However, ‘winning’ is not just about trophies. We want them to be winners in different ways, e.g. win the appreciation of those watching them play through good football, win the respect of their opponents and of each other, win the plaudits for playing the game in the right spirit.
