Taking every player to the next level

"Thanks David Ball Football for a great 6 weeks of skill-based training. Eli was in the 13 - 14 age group and enjoyed the small group environment, enthusiastic coaches and being surrounded by like minded people who are as passionate about football as he is. He came home after each week, took off down to the park, and practiced everything he was learning until it was too dark to see. Very inspiring. Thanks again."

"My son participated in an eight-week training course with David Ball Football Coaching. In the initial few weeks, I noticed enhancements in his club performance, especially in terms of his confidence, precision, and patience. By the end of the program, the trainer gave precise feedback on Dylan’s performance. David Ball Football Coaching offers players an excellent opportunity."

"As a parent and a proud dad, I've witnessed tremendous growth and commitment in Michael's soccer journey since he joined DB Academy. This speaks volumes about the quality of your coaching. Tuesdays have become Michael's favorite day as he eagerly prepares for his training sessions. This clearly indicates the excellent job you're doing! So thank you for your dedication and effort you invest in the kids!"

"I found the Zoom mindset call with David really helpful, as it’s helped me approach my training, games and even day to day things, with more focus on achieving my football goals for the season."

"I was most-impressed with the training regime - it is great when your kids work so physically hard and struggle to walk because of it! Huge win in their Dad's eyes! The facilities are also amazing and the boys were in awe of some of the sports celebrities that they came across. Your comms were also really welcoming and the process of enrolment was straightforward and hassle-free. I really appreciate the feedback forms which also gives the boys something to work towards. They loved the experience and will definitely be back!"

"Our 'Coach the Team' day with David Ball Football at NZCIS was the absolute highlight of our Lakes FC U16 boys football tour in October. Several players' personal highlight was the coaching session with Brad and our goal keeper had a 1 on 1 goalkeeper coaching session with Seth. Our Lakes FC coaches also benefited, in particular with tactical explanations during the game, they rated this experience as the best day of their football coaching to date. Charlotte was kind and accommodating of our needs. Your service exceeded our expectations. I am totally happy to recommend this day to any other teams."

"David Ball's training session early in our football season was invaluable. His coaching tips, clear communication, and depth of game knowledge significantly contributed to my coaching and the team's success. Thanks to David, our team became a cohesive unit, leading to two promotions and ultimately winning the championship. I highly recommend David's training for anyone looking to enhance their football knowledge and skills."

"I trained with Bally for three years, and he played a pivotal role in making my dream move to England a reality. He's an approachable, kind, and dedicated coach who genuinely cares about bringing out the best in people. Now, I see him thriving in the coaching world, and I'm grateful for the support he provided me."

“I couldn’t recommend David enough. He has had an unbelievable playing career and is extremely passionate about helping the next generation of players fulfil their dreams of becoming a professional footballer. A great family man who recognises how important it is to support youngsters and give them a great platform to succeed”
