More Soccer Skills. More Confidence. More Fun.

Develop their game

Give your child time to work on their soccer skills and put them into practice through games and challenges. Camp is an opportunity to try something new, build on what they already know and enjoy more time playing.

Learn from experience

JGFA is founded and led by former professional player Jamie Gosling. His player-first approach combines purposeful soccer training with encouragement and enjoyment. Individual camp listings identify any named coaches or guest appearances.

Complement their club soccer

Your child doesn’t need to change teams to train with JGFA. Our independent academy offers additional development that supports their club soccer, rather than replacing it.

  • “We have been participating in the Jamie Gosling Football Academy Holiday Camps. There is no football locally, so my son Jack and daughter Ruby relish the opportunity to play quality football with the other kids, as well as learn new skills, make friends, and of course, play in the World Cup tournament at the end of the week!!! Jamie and his team of coaches are patient and friendly, and are exceptional at improving players' skills, positioning, and teamwork. A highlight of the holidays, so much that my kids can't wait for the next one...even before we have left!”

    — David

  • Oliver has been attending Jamie’s camps and development sessions for about 16 months. I have seen a massive improvement in his ability, footwork and skills. Jamie is not only passionate about the sport, but as an ex-professional premiership player from the U.K., he brings something to his players that, in my opinion, no one else does. I highly recommend him to everyone.

    — JGFA Mom of son age 10

  • "Our boys started with the Little Goslings 3 year ago and never looked back. We've seen them grow into the Academy with confidence, skill and love for the game. JGFA have all professional international coaches with an extremely kid friendly manner. Our boys love attending the training sessions and are always last to leave. Their favourite part is the mini matches at the end of the sessions. We highly recommend the JGFA academy to others."

    — The Thibault Family

  • “We have Little Goslings attend our service twice a week and we find them to be fantastic! The children absolutely adore the coaches, they are so excited to see them. The children have so much fun when they participate in the program and cannot stop talking about how much they enjoy it to their families.”

    — Sharon Grant

  • “I have been extremely impressed every step of the way since joining my little boy up for Little Goslings. The sessions are very well organised, engaging, great fun, and teach not only ball skills but they are a great building block for working on both gross and fine motor skills. Sander and the other coaches do a fabulous job and I would highly recommend these classes to any little boy or girl looking to have some fun and learn at the same time!!”

    — Natasha

  • "I could not believe how quickly his skills improved. If you have a child who is looking to improve their skills alongside a local club, I absolutely recommend Jamie."

    — JGFA parent, son aged 11

  • “We became a part of the JGFA family 2 1/2 years ago when Jamie identified our son from an event he held at our sons after school care. Since then we have never looked back or doubted our decision for a moment. JGFA is the perfect blend of fun, fitness, competition, skill and FAMILY. The coaches are perfect role models for our youth, they take them under their wing, challenge them, support them and teach them skills that have delivered. The positivity and growth that our sons have gained is worth everything to us and we have made friends that share the same interests and have become our family. For our sons to have mentors they idolise, proves the dedication and devotion of the amazing JGFA coaches and staff. “

    — Aidan and Carmen Neale

  • “Kids need to find balance when striking a football, parents need to find a football academy with balance. JGFA strike a good balance between a family friendly environment and highly qualified international coaching.Too often in football the focus becomes "political", the team do a good job keeping it about the kids, as it should be.”

    — Scott 

  • “Jamie has a fantastic enthusiasm that every young player can relate and responds to. The individual skills he teaches are those that can be applied in game situations, and his football knowledge is displayed in a calm and relaxed manner that only encourages a child’s development.”

    — Chris Collins
    Director of Football, Southside Comets FC / Ex JGFA Coach

  • “Jamie worked for Swindon Town FC as a part-time coach from 2006-2008, when he left to play and coach overseas. Jamie is a tremendous coach, with good knowledge and playing experience that he could deliver to the players, as well as having a great rapport with the players that he worked with. He was fun to work with and always coached with a smile on his face. He has a relaxed coaching style. He coached all children between the ages of 5-16 putting on specialist sessions, as well as assisting with the summer camps and after school clubs. I would always support Jamie in his coaching future.”

    — Jeremy Newton
    Academy Director, Swindon Town Football Club

  • "I recruited Jamie Gosling to RRFC Montegnee in Belgium as a Player/Coach, as I previously knew him when he played professionally for Torquay United. I appointed Jamie as the Head Coach of our Junior team (U21), and he also ran some extra sessions for other age groups, as well as working in the holidays facilitating camps. During this time he built a great relationship with the players he coached, and the parents often praised his manner and coaching style. The children progressed very well under Jamie. He also helped me with the Academy set up here at AFC Bournemouth, teaching ball mastery and techniques to our youth development program.”

    — Paul Topping
    Program Manager, AFC Bournemouth ‘Football in the Community

  • “Great to coach for JGFA! Lovely family environment and the kids enjoy every session they have. I love expressing my knowledge about the game to the children and hope to come back to JGFA coaching after my career. We will help build kids confidence and skills to reach their full potential. ❤️JGFA”

    Kieran Sanders
    Brisbane Olympic – Striker / Ex JGFA Coach

  • “I recruited Jamie and employed him as Assistant Head Coach to come and work alongside me in 2004 after knowing him for several years. He was a fantastic coach and the kids responded brilliantly to his coaching and input during his 2 years with me in the South West Counties league. Jamie has a great way with kids and had a really good bond with them all. He brings with him a great deal of class and experience.

    — Steve Hale
    Head Goalkeeping Coach, Forest Green Rovers

  • “I played with Jamie at Hungerford Town when I first started my football career, and am proud to say we became great friends on and off the field. Not only was Jamie a quality player, but I saw first-hand Jamie’s passion and knowledge for coaching and developing skills in juniors, while still ensuring they had fun at the same time. I know Jamie Gosling Football Academy will help your child to fulfil their potential and create pathways for talented FNQ kids to succeed in Australia and over here in Europe. I have no doubt your child will benefit greatly from Jamie’s infectious style of coaching, and I enjoy talking to Jamie regularly about the Academy’s progress.”
