Where has street football went to? When is the last time you have seen or allowed your children to play football out in the street?
Some of the factors that have caused street football to disappear include;
DutchSoccer4s.Org wants to bring back street football and the children’s game! We want children to have the same fun as we once did we were young. The only adult involvement when we played football was when your mum shouted that dinner was ready!
We want kids to;
Do you remember picking your own teams when you were a kid & if there was an argument that the teams weren’t fair you gave the other team a 2 goal lead? Do you also remember that commentator in your head that was telling the watching millions about you & that mazy run which lead to a fantastic goal in the FA Cup final? Do you remember practicing keepie ups or playing with the football against your mate’s wall while waiting for them to finish their dinner?
Let’s bring back those memories and allow our children to have that same feel of freedom, responsibility & fun! Register with DutchSoccer4s.Org now!

DutchSoccer4s.Org has just kicked off a new term. You can get your child involved with our game centres. 4 v 4 was made famous by the Dutch & today is still one of the best teachers for players on game understanding.
Your child will experience more fun while improving their technical ability & game understanding. In fact 4 v 4 is the simplest format of playing while keeping the basic shape to include all components from the modern game. This includes depth, width & penetration. The ball is never far away so everyone becomes more involved leading to a high paced fun game for children.
You can sign up at any stage of the term as we offer discounted rates for starting mid way through.
If your child attends our Mini Soccer programme they can attend DutchSoccer4s.Org from only £3 per week!
To register or request more information please contact Tim by phone, 077 4012 0788, or by email.
THE BENEFITS OF 4 v 4
The co-founder of Give Us Back Our Game, Rick Fenoglio from Manchester University compiled a yearlong study of Manchester United’s 4 v 4 pilot programme (U9s). When comparing it to the 8 v 8 game he came up with the following findings.
‘In simplified, modified games, players learn to be aware and to improvise, to concentrate, and to recognise the situation. Skills are important, of course, but the value of skills is to be able to use them efficiently in a fraction of a second. Our practices should be one quarter skill training and three quarters applying those skills in endless situations.’

Playing 4 v 4 improves technique & touch through players seeing the ball more. It also improves decision making. Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, is a massive fan of the small sided games approach.
DutchSoccer4s.Org will also help achieve more contact time for players at elite level to improve through play. The fact that elite children in England & Holland receive 9-12 hours a week contact time with their club compared to our local children only receiving around 3 hours is clearly a stat that doesn't improve the technical ability of each player.
