Football coaching session in action

You've tried the gym. You lasted three weeks.

You've downloaded running apps, bought resistance bands, watched YouTube workouts at 6am. Nothing stuck.

It's not a motivation problem. It's a method problem. Most fitness routines are repetitive, lonely, and feel like punishment.

“What if getting fit actually felt like fun?”

What our members say

I heard about the sessions from a friend and decided to give it a go. Before this, I'd tried everything — gym memberships, running clubs, home workouts. Nothing stuck longer than a month. This is the first thing I've actually kept up with. The community aspect is what makes the difference. These people are my mates now.

Hotel Receptionist, 24 · Dulwich

I work a desk job and even though I'm into different sports, I'd never seen anything like what Daryl does — the coaching is proper and unique. I hadn't found the right way to train for a while, but now I've lost weight, my back doesn't ache anymore, and I actually look forward to the sessions.

L
Luke Augustus
Sports Journalist, 32 · Finsbury Park

I used to play a lot of football, but I reached a point where I just wanted to train without all the heavy physicality. Everyone was so welcoming from day one. The sessions are tough but in a good way — you're having so much fun you don't realise how hard you're working. Even my teenage brothers come now, and they usually hate sport.

K
Kelvin Antwi-Boadu
Youth Worker, 28 · Vauxhall

As someone who hasn’t exercised properly in years, I was dreading it. But the coaches make you feel like you belong from minute one. I’m three months in and genuinely feel ten years younger.

Marketing Manager, 41 · Clapham

The best part? It doesn’t feel like exercise. You’re just playing football, having a laugh, and somehow burning 700 calories. My gym membership is cancelled.

J
James W.
Teacher, 29 · Peckham

I bring my daughter to the family sessions and it’s become our thing. She asks about it every week. That’s never happened with any other activity.

Your coach

Meet Daryl Vanterpool

Daryl is an FA licensed coach and football scout consultant with over five years of experience in the professional academy sector. He's scouted for AFC Wimbledon and worked with organisations like Sisu Sports Management and TalentNet Sports Management.

But somewhere along the way, he noticed something. The people who benefited most from football weren't the ones chasing contracts. They were the parents who forgot about stress, the teenagers who left laughing, the adults who couldn't believe how good it felt to be back on a pitch.

In 2021, Daryl founded Live United, a community organisation bringing sports, arts, and youth programmes to families across London. Football for Fitness is the next chapter.

“I've spent years finding talent in professional football. Now I want to help everyone experience what the beautiful game can do for their body, their confidence, and their life.”
