Our reaction and response to COVID-19

At APD our attitude is to always provide the best quality coaching to children and players of all ages despite difficult circumstances!

As decided by the government to go into lock down at the beginning and then the end of the year, we unfortunately had to temporarily close our elite centres in Chatham, Bromley and Eltham. Our elite centre enable players to showcase their talent whilst learning from our passionate and highly experienced coaches.

Due to our coaching being vital for a players enjoyment and performance, we decided as a company to provide online training sessions available to boys and girls of all ages on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights. Our online sessions were very successful and definitely had a positive impact on all players and coaching staff at APD.

As we began to re-open our elite centre when safe to do so, we ensure that we provided safe and enjoyable training to all players that attend our centres. We ensured social distancing was kept when needed and that all equipment was sanitised to keep all children and staff safe.

We continue to work with our players around Kent and South East London to optimise their performance levels and ensure they enjoy their football at all times!
