About the programme


Our Manchester City Football Language Programme sees players gain a mixture of practical on-field training and engaging language lessons. Using realistic game scenarios, our coaches work on both your individual techniques and game play, giving players a better understanding of how Manchester City play ‘Beautiful Football’.

Practical football training sessions


Delivered by our coaches who are experienced in Manchester City’s philosophy and methodology, our football sessions provide players with a genuine insight into how Manchester City players train.

Players can expect to better understand how a modern footballer is moulded, improving their English skills in an authentic, practical, and engaging environment. Our football focuses on the following key areas:

  • Development of individual technique and skills
  • Challenging 1v1 practices
  • Team play and working together
  • Improved understanding of how Manchester City perform through playing games

Exciting English language lessons


During our language sessions, all players put their skills into practice in creative football-themed activities, such as:

  • Press conferences
  • Media interviews
  • Commentary Analysis
  • Punditry

English lessons are delivered by professional language teachers with a minimum CELTA, Trinity TESOL or equivalent qualification.

Our Football Language Programmes are suitable for beginner and intermediate language speakers. For more advanced English speakers, our Football Development or Football Performance Programmes may be more suitable.
