Football for the World Development

Great football club and organization with many different opportunities to improve your skills.as a player

It’s only my second year at Football for the world but I already love this club and couldn’t see myself playing anywhere else. The coach’s are great and have help improve every aspect of my game. The team is great and very inviting and kinda. I am looking forward to making many new memories with FFTW. I feel like I have improved as not only a player but a person too.

I joined the FFTW family about a year ago as a player and as an individual looking to get into coaching. I learned a lot by working beside coach Alikhan - (the technical director). Coach Ali and the other staff members were super friendly and welcoming. I found my passion of helping players develop while working at FFTW and FFTW also helped me develop as a coach. The focus at FFTW is to help the players develop as players and as individuals. I would 100% recommend FFTW to any player that wants to improve their Football/Soccer skills and is ready to work for it.

My son has mainly played with Kitchener Soccer Club teams until the summer of 2022, when we came across FFTW's summer camp program. My son had such an amazing experience at the FFTW camp, led by Coach Mocha, that he asked to tryout for the FFTW academy. We were so impressed with what we experienced at the tryouts, that joining FFTW academy was an easy decision! Since then, we continue to be impressed with the outstanding tactical knowledge of the Coaches, along with their positive attitudes, which keeps the kids loving the sport. In my opinion, Coach Ali, who is head coach for FFTW, is one of the best, if not the best coaches in the region. He understands his players and the instruction they need to develop into better players, while having each player's best interests at heart, on and off the field. Finally, Coach Ali develops new, aspiring coaches, who he has previously coached in his academy teams. We are really happy with the coaching team (Coach Ali, Coach Paige and Coach Marko) who are invested in our son and his team. We truly believe that if you are looking for a great soccer club for your child, FFTW is the way to go!

3 years ago my daughter almost lost the love for soccer due to a city program moving her from the top team to a lower one they said to help the weaker players get better. We heard about fftw and went and tried out we got an emailed contract I contacted them to ask a few questions like how many other girls made the boys team she was only 1 that was the big thing to make sure wasn't about numbers and money like the city programs

Here we are 3 years later and still apart of the team and still the only girl strong enough to compete with the boys

Coach mocha speaks the truth and tells it how it is and his heart is there for the kids after a meeting with him we knew it was time or soon to be time to move to girls soccer and we did mya is now on a girls elite team just got put on an Allstars team of all the best girls here n gta she was also seen by soccer global which is a team that travels over seas to play

The end point of this is if it wasn't for coach mocha and coach Ali from fftw I don't think mya would still be playing soccer we owe you guys the world for teaching and pushing her to be the best she can be

Highly recommend for anybody that wants to learn and improve

I was a big soccer fan who wanted to develop on coaching and then I found FFTW their goal is creating the best possible version of our players and also coaches. Our coaches are very professional they always want the best for players they are very nice with kids and unlike the other places they know the ball. My experience so far is amazing. Highly recommended.

My son in this academy for over two years. During this time he has improved his game dramatically but also in terms of confidence. Coaches are very professional and motivated individuals.

Great program! The emphasis is on learning and developing skills. The coaches are very conscientious and work hard to help the kids learn and love soccer, all in a very positive environment. Highly recommended!

Our son has been a part of the FFTW family for 3 years now and we would highly recommend them! We have seen continual growth in our son’s overall confidence, and technical ability. Beyond all of that, the work the academy does to build strong character on and off the pitch is what takes it next level. They build a true sense of respect between player and coaches, while keeping it fun and encouraging each player to develop to their full potential.

Our daughter has been doing 1: 1 and small group training with Mocha from FFTW for a year. After extensively searching the region for quality, high performance training, we were happy to find Mocha. Mocha takes the time to learn each player’s strengths and areas where they can improve, and tailors each session to address those needs in a high energy, fun, and constructive way. Our daughter always leaves each session more confident and with skills she is able to apply to her game. We regularly recommended Mocha to other soccer families and will rely on Mocha for extra training in the future.

My daughter has really come out of her shell as a defender and is now confidently passing and clearing the ball, and is starting to enjoy playing the game. FFtW has a great bunch of coaches that are doing a fantastic job helping the kids develop their game!

FFTW development is an exceptional training program for kids with a passion for soccer and learning. The founder Ali and all of the coaches are committed to not only teaching the sport but the values of hardwork, determination and respect. I highly recommend the FFTW Academy and their commitment to forever moving forward.

A very friendly and welcoming club, I have been working as one of the assistance coach at FFTW for a couple months. The players are well mannered, and the club is very well organized. I have learned a lot as a coach from Alikhan himself (Technical Director) and everyday is a fun learning experience here at Football for the World.

Soccer and training kids should be a passion and a commitment. I've seen my brother's performance improve drastically in a short period of time. In my opinion, i highly recommend FFTW soccer academy and coaches Ali and Mocha. If someone really wants to get into soccer this club is a great choice.

The best coaches you can ask for. I'm blessed to have them as my coaches. There constant motivation and encouragement pushed me to heights I never dreamed I'd reach. Thank you for inspiring me to be excellent in all that I do. Thank you for seeing and bringing out the best in me.amazing team ️

My nephew Zain is a part of the Youth Soccer League and also attends several Seasonal Programs and has very much enjoyed his experience so far.

We are very happy with the training and the attention to detail the coaches provide. We highly recommend FFTW as you will not find any coaching like this with the clubs in the area.

Thank you FFTW!

I am Narain Ulaganathan, FFTW u18 academy player. The training that I have gone through this year has made me understand soccer in a better way and how I can use my strengths to the max on the field. This is a great organization for development and the great coaches will prepare you to advance into the next level.

My nephew is part of both the Spring and Youth Soccer League and he has enjoyed every moment of both the training and coaching during game play. We look forward to the rest of the sessions over the summer!

Thank you to the coaching staff for the great job they do with all the players.

Great experience with FFTW from the beginning. Very professional, from the contract itself, through seasonal programs, camps, to their soccer academy. Professional and dedicated staff, no random selection of coaches. While they are motivating the players with positive feedback, they are constantly providing constructive feedback as well, in order for the players to improve.

The report card we got was not a one-size-fits-all card with sample feedback, but focused on specifics of our son's performance, so he knew what to focus on (in addition to regular feedback during practices).

Highly recommended. If not willing to commit for a full year immediately, come to some of their summer camps or spring/fall programs and see the difference for yourself.

A great group of coaches and staff to help develop kids into the next level of soccer. Very happy that a decision was to change my son over to the academy level than leaving him in the city rep programs.

The coaches at FFTW are very knowledgeable and approachable. They know what their players need to develop and run sessions that allow players to develop technically and tactically. We have been thoroughly impressed by the organization and communication of this academy and feel that it’s the best in the region.

We have been very happy with the philosophy and approach of the club and coaching staff. The training goes beyond on-the-pitch growth, instilling in their players a strong sense of commitment, team, and mutual respect. Players are challenged and supported to develop, not in comparison to others, but in competition with themselves.

The coaches are wonderful and very approachable. They successfully create a balanced environment of discipline and passion for the sport.

We have seen continuous improvement in our son’s game and his confidence. We can’t wait to see what this team, and this academy, achieve in the years to come!

It has been a pleasure for me to watch my boys play soccer with FFTW. Neither of my children have experienced coaching at this level or intensity previously and it has been fascinating for me to watch the boys grow and develop their skills and athleticism. When I asked my oldest son how he liked playing with FFTW he said "it is really difficult.and super fun". I respect FFTW coaching style, which seems very balanced with competence, "no nonsense", kindness and respect. Thank you, FFTW, for creating a positive and supportive environment and challenging my children to learn, fail and to try again - this has been great character development on and off the field.

My son joined FFTW’s U12 team this season and we (parents included!) couldn’t be happier. We have watched the coaches guide and develop our son with such positivity and respect. Their coaching ability is top notch and we see growth in our son (both in skill and confidence) day by day. They meet him where he’s at skill-wise, push him appropriately to improve, and have a development plan in place for him. Within the teams themselves there is such a high level of respect between teammates; that is modeled by leadership.the coaches. The boys are singularly focused on getting better together and it is quite amazing to see them coming together as a team. We expected development within the game of football when we joined FFTW. Our son has just gained so much more: confidence, self-awareness, pushing through the hard stuff, focused work ethic. These aren’t just soccer skills, they are life skills. Thank you, FFTW family.

We have been very happy with the technical skill of the coaching staff, their professionalism and communication. Our child joined FFTW at the inception of their academy U15 team and we have enjoyed watching the team grow in skill and cohesion. We believe our child has had skill building practices and see that translating on the field. The coaches are very encouraging of the players skill and work to enhance what they see in them as individuals to get the best out of them for the team. We have experienced issues being addressed quickly and thoughtfully. We would highly recommend FFTW for anyone wanting an academy that will help their child excel to the next level.

Our son has been participating with FFTW for well over a year now. Through all the camps, practices, festivals and games he has enjoyed himself tremendously, and his game has steadily improved. Ali, Mocha and the rest of the coaches provide a fantastic, highly engaging and competitive environment to develop the kids as soccer players, learning to respect each other, the coaches and the sport itself. Very professional, well organized, and geared for the development of the game. Highly recommended.
