    What is Football with Chelsea FC?

    This in-person performance football camp is designed for boys aged 15-17 who play at club level and want to develop their football skills in a high-performance setting. Participants receive personalized coaching in small groups, play competitive matches, and benefit from individual coaching reviews and certificates. The camp includes additional football workshops or English language lessons to complement on-pitch training.

    Campers stay on-site at Winchester College in Hampshire, enjoying accommodation with meals and snacks provided. Excursions include tours of Stamford Bridge and other UK attractions for longer stays. The camp also focuses on welfare support with a strong staff-to-player ratio and round-the-clock care.

    Two camp options allow participants to select either football workshops focusing on professional player lifestyle and skills or immersive English lessons using football-based content. These camps provide opportunities to train like elite athletes and meet peers from around the world in an immersive English environment.

    Who should consider this?

    Best for

    Best for boys aged 10 to 17 who play football regularly and want to improve their skills in a professional environment with expert coaching. It suits those interested in either football-focused workshops or developing English language skills through football-themed lessons. The programme is ideal for players seeking an immersive football training experience with opportunities to train at Chelsea FC’s facilities.

    Not ideal if

    Not ideal if you are looking for a casual or recreational football experience without a structured training schedule. It may not suit participants who prefer short sessions or less intensive coaching, or those not interested in full residential stays or group living situations. Additionally, the programme focuses on boys; girls would need to consider the separate girls’ football camps.

    Is it worth it?

    This camp provides access to professional-level coaching from Chelsea FC staff and the chance to train at the club's official Cobham Training Ground, which may be valuable for players aiming to improve their football skills within a structured, elite environment. The program combines technical training with personal development through workshops or academic English lessons, enhancing both sporting and communication skills. Participants benefit from organised excursions, accommodation, and welfare support, which contribute to a comprehensive experience. However, the camp’s suitability depends on your individual goals and readiness for intensive football training.

    What you actually do

    Participants engage in a rigorous football training schedule including up to 24 hours per week of coaching and matches. They can choose between attending football workshops focused on nutrition, teamwork, and professional habits, or immersive English language lessons themed around football.
