These sessions will be for Children currently in Reception/Foundation class at Primary School and will introduce players to the beautiful game. The focus of the sessions will be on the technical, physical and social aspect of football in a fun and friendly environment which encourages decision making and playing without fear.

The FA Respect Parent Guide

Respect is The FA’s programme to address unacceptable behaviour in football – on and off the pitch. You can view the Code of Conducts below. We expect everyone involved with the club to agree to and follow these;   

- Young Players

- Spectators & Parents/Carers

- Coaches, Team Managers & Club Officials

The FA has also launched a free online Respect Parent Guide to highlight examples of poor behaviour and, more importantly, how it can be improved. Colchester Villa advise all parents/carers new to the club to go through the guide.
