Football

Football clubs run across the Schools for boys and girls. The Junior School has weekly sessions in Years 1 and 2, and Years 3 and 4, plus sessions for boys in Years 5 and 6 and a girls session for Years 4-6.

In the Senior Schools, a session runs for girls in Years 7-11 and for boys in Years 7 and 8, Years 9 and 10 and Years 11-13.

 

Our teams enter both the Newcastle City and Northumberland County cups and regularly play fixtures against other teams in the local area. Our first XI and A teams are entered into the ISFA Cup competitions.

 

Our facilities include multiple playing pitches. Additionally the school fitness suite is available to all for strength and conditioning work. Our internal coaching staff are complimented by our external coach, Newcastle United academy coach Drew Beardsley, who has 15 years experience in working at Dame Allan’s. We aim to ensure that all students receive high quality coaching which is player centred and focuses on ball control and movement. Each year group has a tailored coaching programme which emphasises different skills through different year groups.

 

We have a number of both boys and girls who are Northumberland County players and Newcastle United academy players, with more students than ever before representing the Newcastle City district team.
