COACH INFORMATION
We believe that quality coaching his the hallmark of quality soccer
schools. The 2009 Soccer School programme in Ireland is no
exception. We have carefully selected the coaches based on their
breath and depth of experience. Please find details below...

WEATHER CANCELLATIONS Please note
that the Sunderland AFC Soccer Schools are outdoor events and
are therefore subject to weather conditions. Please ensure that your
child brings appropriate protective clothing in the event of rain.
While every effort is made to ensure continuity during the week of
the Soccer School, we would ask you to please understand that in the
interests of safety and welfare there are occasions where we cannot
continue to coach and it becomes necessary to suspend or cancel
coaching activities. When making your booking you will be asked to
supply appropriate daytime contact numbers. In the event that an
activity must be suspended you will be contacted and advised to
collect your child. The coaching staff will supervise children until
the guardian arrives. Please note however that no refunds will be
issued in the event of a Soccer School being fully or partially cancelled.
CODE OF CONDUCT Alcohol,
cigarettes or illegal substances are strictly prohibited and any
player found to be in possession of them will be dismissed from the
course immediately. Sunderland AFC operate an anti bullying policy
and we do not tolerate bullying in any form. If a player is found
bullying another player they will be cautioned once and if the
problem persists they will be dismissed from the course. Players
should be polite and courteous to staff and peers at all times.
Discipline and supervision are high on our list of priorities and
our aim is to ensure that every player has an enjoyable and
enriching experience whilst in attending our Soccer Schools.
