Elite Pro Training Method

Elite training is personalized for each individual based on their age, aimed at developing a deep understanding of basic and advanced skills, and knowing how to use these skills effectively in competitive settings. Athletes are grouped according to their psychological, physical, technical, and tactical abilities that match those of their peers.

We believe Individual training should be fun and enjoyable. We tend to associate individual training with monotonous drills and lengthy explanations coaches, but not at Uhuru!

At Elite Training, we believe in the power of pairing athletes with similar technical and tactical abilities during practice sessions. This approach not only challenges footballers to continually enhance their skills but also fosters a highly competitive training setting that motivates them to excel.
