It is the start of a new year and it is an opportunity to reset, refocus and set new standards for yourself. Every session, every touch of the ball, and every decision you make is an opportunity to improve. You cannot control what has already happened in 2025 or previous years, but you can contol what happens in the future. You can control your attendance, your effort, your attitude and your commitment from today onwards. Set yourself clear targets, push yourself outside of your comfort zone, and trust that small improvements will lead to big progress over the year ahead. Make 2026 a year where you take responsibility for your development and push yourself to be the best player you can be.
It might not be all plain sailing. Setbacks are likely to happen. It is how you react to them.
Our coaches will try our very best to help all of our players reach their ambitions and goals.
ACADEMY
We return on Monday 5th January 2026 with testing with Eck from Raesde Pro Edge Conditioning. The testing allows players, parents and coaches with the opportunity to monitor individual physical development. It is important for parents to understand that children develop at different times. Not every child is an early developer and there can be up to 6 years of a bioligical age difference between 2 players at the same age.
Testing includes their height, weight, 5m sprint (acceleration), 20m sprint (top speed), change of direction sprints, and a standing long jump (explosive leg power).
Individual results will be forwarded to parents.
If we get through the testing quick enough, we will finish with games.
We also encourage our players to do additional work from home by accessing the 7mlc site on YouTube (we covered some of his ball mastery last week). His content is fantastic and there's a reason why he has nearly 2m followers. It is also free!! You can access it all here:
SUCCESS STORIES
We love to hear of success stories for our players.
Success is not just signing pro. Was your child rewarded at their grassroots clubs, at school, or in a different sport or field?
Please let us know about any success your child has.
GOALKEEPER EVENT
The feedback from training with Jonny was excellent. We are looking to start regular goalkeeping specific sessions early this year. Look our for further information.
STREET FEET SCOOTTISH CUP 2026
The Street Feet Christmas Cup was a resounding success and it was fantastic to see so many Escocia players involved with their friends and teams. This year we are looking to run regional events across Scotland with a national final. Competitions are likely to take place during July 2026 with national finals in December.

TEAM SESSIONS
Why not gain greater tactical insight at our team sessions:
INTERNATIONAL TOURNEMENTS
Our u11's (2015/16's) are confirmed for Madeira 2026 but we want to expose our players to more futsal outside of Scotland.
We are looking at u13, u15, u17 and u19 events later in 2026 and we will be arranging external matches across the UK at all age groups.
Futsal Niños
Our Futsal Niños for 4-6 year olds is going extremely well and the session is now fully booked. I genuinely believe that these sessions are the perfect place to start your futsal/football journey.
Look out for new Futsal Niños sessions starting in central and west Fife soon!!
