Kuredu Resort Maldives has partnered with Football Escapes to offer a children’s football coaching course this December.

The five-day coaching course will be available to kids visiting Kuredu from December 23-28 (excluding 25th). The course is open to children of all abilities, aged 5-15.

The course offers five days of coaching with two hours of daily football activity at Kuredu’s FIFA regulated, 11-a-side pitch. Each child that enrols in the course is provided with a full kit, including a shirt, shorts and socks as well as a signed certificate and medal on completion of the week’s course.

“Football Escapes’ players and coaches immerse themselves fully on and off the pitch providing families a unique experience to help make that special holiday even more exceptional. Whether it’s around the pool, by the bar or at breakfast, their team are on hand and always happy to say hello,” an announcement read.

“The courses are led by ex-professional players, supported by a great team of UEFA licensed coaches, all of whom come from renowned English Premier League clubs.”

London-based Football Escapes provide premier football coaching courses in partnership with some of the finest and most exclusive resorts around the world. The company has worked with world-renowned hotel groups such as Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, JA Resorts & Hotels, Jumeirah and Kempinski Hotels in leading destinations, including the Maldives, Mauritius, Dubai, Cyprus, Portugal and China.
