Nick's Philisophy
Nick Corrigan’s coaching philosophy is simple: every child, regardless of ability or background, deserves the opportunity to play and enjoy soccer. This commitment to inclusion extends to children with intellectual or physical challenges, ensuring that all children can participate in the beautiful game. The primary mission of Nick Corrigan’s Soccer School is to teach and develop soccer skills in safe, enjoyable environments. Nick draws on a lifetime of experience, including extensive work in the disability sector, to guide his coaching staff. He ensures that his philosophy is consistently and accurately conveyed by his team.
Nick is dedicated to delivering quality, professional soccer coaching to children. His hands-on management style has led to the identification of future soccer stars, with several of his students earning trials at top clubs like Aston Villa in the English Premier League.
Community spirit and involvement are at the heart of Nick Corrigan’s Soccer Schools. Founded 13 years ago, the school’s commitment to community engagement remains its foundation. The positive feedback from school principals, physical education teachers, and parents speaks to Nick’s unwavering dedication to inclusion and the development of every child, regardless of ability or experience. Nick Corrigan’s Soccer Schools continues to work closely with local schools, offering coaching sessions before school or during school hours. These sessions include demonstrations that highlight the details of Nick’s coaching program. Additionally, Nick’s schools actively support local fundraising efforts in partnership with these schools.

The Nick Corrigan Soccer Schools program ensures that kids receive high-quality, professional soccer coaching while having fun. Our slogan, “Come and Have a Ball with a Ball” reflects this commitment. Each week’s specialised program builds on the last, helping children improve their game, character, and self-esteem. The exercises and drills are carefully designed to be interconnected across all age groups, ensuring continuity and flow in a child’s development as they progress through the four age brackets.
