On the pitch
Players on camp train twice a day, developing the technical quality, tactical understanding and mindset required to compete at the highest level. Coaching sessions are held every morning and evening and are tailored to age and ability level, with a focus on the Liverpool FC values. Sessions combine individual and group technical work with position-specific coaching, tactical sessions, set piece training, larger-sided and small-sided games and a weekly tournament.
Each player receives an individual assessment meeting with their coach and a detailed feedback report to take home, highlighting their strengths and the areas to work on next. Players gain a deeper understanding of their game while developing independence, resilience and self-confidence within a high-performance, international football environment.
Camp Options
Choose between Football Focus Workshops and Football + English Lessons alongside football training. Players on the Football Focus programme will follow a comprehensive programme of workshops led by LFC coaches. Players who choose Football + English take part in engaging, football-focused English Language lessons.
Classroom sessions take place in the afternoon, between morning and evening football training sessions.
-
Players take their development further through specialist workshops led by LFC coaches, exploring topics like mindset, game intelligence, teamwork and wellbeing. Informed by the LFC values and designed to give young players a competitive edge, these sessions equip them with the knowledge, tools and confidence to perform like a Liverpool FC player on the pitch.
-
Qualified teachers inspire players to learn through fun, dynamic, project-based lessons centred on LFC and football topics. Daily lessons offer a break from the physicality of training, and players benefit from individual attention in small, ability-based classes. Football training is delivered in English and players live among native English speakers on camp. This immersive English environment supports rapid development and accelerates learning outside the classroom. Every player receives a detailed English progress report at the end of the camp.
“The football coaching workshops are specifically designed to support on-field training and improve players understanding of themselves as athletes and how they contribute to the team”
- Dan, Program Manager, Liverpool FC International Academy

Led by experienced staff in the gym, these sessions help to develop the physical qualities and knowledge needed to perform at their best on the pitch.
