Written by the company

Skillz UK was founded in 2012 by Ashley Thomas. Our first ever class started with just 10 children attending. The goal has been simple! To create football classes centered around CHILDREN (or our Superstars as we like to call them!). That means lots of energy, themed games and tonnes of smiles! To date, we now have over 500 weekly members within Croydon and Sutton at our children's football classes, teaching an additional 400 per in our local nurseries and schools.

My son started Skillz sessions after school and has now progressed to playing for the team. His love of football has grown and grown as has his Skillz and determination. We have also had one of Skillz football parties and cannot recommend them enough for a football mad child! All the staff I’ve dealt with have been helpful and really approachable.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED classes!!⚽️🏆🥇🎯.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED classes!!⚽️🏆🥇🎯.

I was looking for activities for my 3 and 6 years old boys (at the time) right after the lockdown and I discovered Skillz classes after a mum from my son’s school highly recommended me The Skillz football classes. Since they have attended their first sessions I have noticed a lot of improvement in their cognitive and mindfulness development. Jahi, my eldest, was very emotional, more introvert and lacking of confidence. Amadi was the opposite with a hyperactive mind and lack of focus.
The coaches Stefan and Ashley are fuelled by enthusiastic and energetic vibes and a display of POSITIVE ATTITUDE!!!

The owner Ashley Thomas has tailored and developed classes to suit your child’s personal care and needs.

Great for confidence

My son loves his weekly sessions at Skillz. He has learned valuable skills that he is able to put into practise in a game situation and has really grown in confidence. The coaches are friendly and approachable. We love watching our son participating and having so much fun!

Great experience for all

So far has been great. Ash and the other coaches really get the kids all involved, regardless of level. My son has been in other football schools but has never enjoyed any of them as much Skillz

Brilliant football party thanks to Skillz!

We celebrated our sons 6th birthday by having a Skillz football party and it was just a fabulous experience from the point of booking to the day itself. Ashley and team made party preparation so easy and ran the party so smoothly. All children had an amazing time and even those who had little or no experience of football were engaged the entire time by the variety of games played. My son said "it was the best birthday ever" and having party run so well by Ashley and team meant it was a really stress free day for me too, which was great! I would highly recommend a Skillz party to anyone. It was fun for all.

Highly recommended!!

Ashley has almost grown with us as a family, he started off teaching my now 11 year old football Skillz and my younger two boys followed. They’ve always enjoyed and look forward to their classes.. we have also had numerous football and Multisports. parties with Skillz over the years and Ashley and his team never cease to impress. They sorted everything from entertainment to decorations, all I needed to bring was food and cake. He took the stress out of it all and made us feel at ease! Thanks Ashley and your fantastic team, keep up the good work! Highly recommended!

Thank you Skillz!

Dylan absolutely loves his Friday football sessions with Skillz-they’re the highlight of his week! He has so much fun, is developing lots of skills and both Ashleys are fantastic with great coaching.

He also had a recent joint party run by Skillz for him and his friends. All of the children who came had a great time and Ashley tailored the activities so that it wasn’t just our football-mad boys that loved it.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the weekly training sessions, Skillz parties and also their holiday camps to anyone-they’re all great!

6 Year old B-day party

Ashley did a fantastic job with my 6 year olds birthday party. 31 Children were invited and an extra 5 siblings attended. Taking the total number of children to 36. Ashley and Ashley kept the kids occupied with various games and nobody lost interest. I would very highly recommend the company and got so many compliments from parents. The kids absolutely loved it! Thank you for doing a great job!
