Pro Touch SA is a registered Community Interest Company born out of a desire to use the power of sport to encourage young Londoners to unleash their potential.

Established in 2006, Pro Touch SA delivers structured community sports and elite football programmes in over 11 London boroughs to young people aged 4-25 and as well as engaging with their families who require support and guidance.

 

We started as a soccer academy offering opportunities to gifted and talented footballers but have evolved to providing healthy active lifestyle opportunities to young people, with everything from fitness to fencing and more.

 

With rising cuts and closure to services, we see it as a responsibility to provide much-needed provision around community, youth, and sports to engage children and young people in inner-city London.

 

Alongside our community projects, we also run an Elite football academy, led by qualified coaches who have helped develop, mentor and guide over 40 plus young "gifted and talented" athletes aged between 9-25 years old signing schoolboy, scholarship, or professional contracts with professional football clubs in England.

As a not-for-profit organisation, we re-invest all surplus back into the programmes we operate across London.

 

“Pathway to Professional Football”

Since 2006, Pro Touch SA has helped over 40 young people in inner-city London to progress to achieve schoolboy, scholarship, and professional contracts at football clubs in England.

From our training football complex at Market Road and Whittington Park, Islington, we run an intense and enjoyable programme of training and matches led by qualified, enhanced-DBS staff in a friendly, but competitive environment to provide our gifted and talented youngsters a learning zone where they can achieve their goal of becoming a schoolboy footballer.

 

The Elite Academy provides a bridge and education into the world of professional football not only for young people but their parents and families; behaviours, etiquette and everything that is required to thrive in a professional academy environment.

 

Our young people play regularly against professional teams from the UK and abroad as well as participate in international tournaments in Croatia,

Denmark, France, North Macedonia, Portugal and Spain.

 

“ACCESS TO ALL”

Pro Touch SA believes in inclusion and “access to all' using the power of sport to engage young people across London boroughs.

 

With the lack of and closure of a number of services and initiatives across the city, (we have taken responsibility to provide much of the needed services around community, youth and sport.

Our programmes allow us to work closely with young people to not only encourage social inclusion and healthy living, but workshops which tackle important issues such as drugs awareness, and gang violence as well as equipping them with knowledge of financial independence and learning new skills.

 

We deliver community youth and sports activities, programmes, and projects across the year - running sessions in youth clubs, holiday programmes as well as sports camps and taster sessions of activities and opportunities which would normally be considered out-of-reach for most communities.

 

Our aim is to provide healthy active lifestyle opportunities for young people and give them the best opportunity to excel in their chosen paths.
