Ages U4–U6 · Every Thursday
MORE FOOTBALL.MORE CONFIDENCE.MORE DEVELOPMENT.
A Thursday U4–U6 development session for players who want more football, more challenge and an additional opportunity to develop each week.
Another chance to play, every week.
More time with a ball at this age is never wasted. Next Gens gives young players another structured, enjoyable session each week to build on what they're already doing – not a harder version of it.
More Time With The Ball
Another weekly opportunity for meaningful touches, repetition and exploration.
Confidence Through Repetition
Familiar skills and situations become more comfortable as players experience them more often.
Learning Through Play
Young players develop through games, challenges and football activities designed for their age.
A Familiar JDA Environment
Players attending Saturday Soccer School can build familiarity with coaches, routines and the wider JDA environment.
More Football For Players Who Love It
Some young players simply want to play football whenever they can. Next Gens gives them another structured opportunity to do that.
Two sessions. One development journey.
Saturday Soccer School and Next Gens are designed to complement each other. Players can attend either programme independently, but for children who simply can't get enough football, attending both provides two opportunities each week to play, learn and develop within the JDA environment.

Growing into the wider JDA journey.
Next Gens sits alongside Saturday Soccer School in JDA's youngest age groups. As players grow, two further opportunities become available: JDA Academy from age 6 for team development and a competitive pathway, and the Technical Centre from age 7 for additional individual development – separate opportunities within JDA, not a guaranteed progression from one into the other.
