About Us – Home
Each month members will be assigned specific topics to focus on, with the FA 4 corners (physiological, social, physical and technical) centred on throughout the session. We assess members’ proficiency in all aspects of football with intensity and focus.
Morgan Kyle - Head Coach
MK ELITES sessions will be a mixture of physical/technical game related focus. With set topics to focus on every month. Being tested on every aspect of football with intensity and focus.
The FA 4 corners (physiological/social/physical and technical) will be mentioned in and throughout the sessions.
Athleticism Is massively important at MK ELITES. To be able to perform the best, you need your body to be capable off delivering what is asked / wanted off. Throughout the sessions, players will work on speed/strength/balance and many more key attributes allowing their body to get to the next level. This is why at MK ELITES we do a large amount of strength/conditioning and fitness towards the end of the sessions.
MK ELITES works closely on the physiological aspect of the game growing players into becoming the best versions of themselves on and off the pitch.
It is extremely important to believe in your own ability and to be confident/kind and driven whilst carrying themselves in the correct manner. This has to be demonstrated on highs and lows throughout their training.
We want all players to have a creative edge about them being able to use both feet in any situation they are confronted with in the game. Whether that be taking a first touch away/dribbling in tight areas or having a variety of skills/touches in the locker. We also want our players to have the capability to show their skills and express themselves in the practices to give them the extra shine in games.
The social corner is easily the most underrated aspect of football – and yet perhaps the most important. Football is a team game, meaning that success comes from positive relationships between players and coaches. The way players carry their mannerism on and off the pitch is hugely important. Every player will show more talent and bravery in comfortable environments. Every child will take time knowing each other’s names and always greeting each other on arrival.
I have always loved and breathed football ever since my childhood. I am super excited to be able to start up a Football Academy as it’s always been a dream of mine ever since starting my coaching career many years ago. I have turned my passion into being a professional coach and giving every child I coach the chance of being the best version of themselves on and off the pitch.
I have been lucky enough to be in many people’s journeys, from learning children how to take their first touch of the ball to turning professional. I am grateful to be able to focus my passion whilst guiding people in their next chapter of their football journey.
I am lucky to be able to have coached many players from many professional academy’s such as Barnsley, Sheffield Utd, Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds Utd, Derby County, Doncaster Rovers, Rotherham Utd, Manchester Utd, Manchester City, Leicester and more. Whilst coaching small group sessions and 1v1’s all over Yorkshire.
