Welcome to FITC
FITC has been running since 2005 and we coach across the counties of Essex, London & Suffolk.
We coach all ages, abilities and experiences.
Our aim is simple and that is to give every child a facility and an opportunity to play football and reach their highest potential within the game.

About Us
- FITC Academy – This is a selection only programme for players between U7-U18. This is for players that we believe, with coaching from FITC Academy will have the potential to get into a professional Academy. Our aim is to help bridge the gap between grassroots and professional academies. As of November 2020, FITC have sent 162 players into professional clubs.
FITC Clubs – this section of the company is open to everyone. We offer clubs for all ages, abilities and experiences. The clubs we offer are;
- After School Clubs
- FITC Development Centre
- Goalkeeping Sessions
- Wildcats Programme
- 1:1’s and Small Groups Sessions
- Birthday Parties
- Futsal
- Infants and Toddlers
FITC Camps – Every school holiday, FITC run holiday camps at multiple venues. These camps range from 2-10 day camps depending on what holiday it is. The camps run from 10am-3pm. The camps are for players between 5-12 years old and players of all abilities and experiences are welcome. (see ‘CAMPS’ for upcoming dates and information).
FITC Staff – All FITC coaches are UEFA and FA qualified as well as holding up to date emergency aid and safeguarding certificates. All our staff are only employed subject to a successful fully enhanced DBS check.
“A lot of private football academies talk a good game, but this one actually delivers.”
“My son’s confidence was low after attending another academy but the smile quickly came back after attending FITC.
The coaches and sessions here are the best I’ve seen and they care about the kids and that means so much!!”
“My son recently joined. Very professionally ran and friendly environment. Recommended for any budding footballer. A+”

My son loves and looks forward to attending the camp and Futsal sessions.”
