Every session follows a five-part structure: warm-up and joint mobility (10-15 min), technical ball work (15-20 min), a football-based fitness circuit (15-20 min), small-sided games (15-20 min), and a cool-down with stretching (10 min). Sessions last approximately 60-90 minutes and are led by FA licensed coaches.

Monthly membership is £50 for unlimited sessions at all London locations. Flex packs are available: 10 sessions for £150 (£15 each) or 3 sessions for £60 (£20 each). Your first session is completely free with no card required. No contracts, no hidden fees.

Question 5

Is football fitness good for weight loss?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A typical Football for Fitness session burns between 500-800 calories depending on intensity. The interval nature of football training also creates an 'afterburn effect', meaning your body continues burning calories for up to 48 hours after a session. Combined with the social accountability of group training, members consistently see better results than at the gym.
