This is Hard Work. On my field, football means sweat and moving fast. I’m not here for drama - just pure effort. I keep telling everyone: believe in yourself, but you have to bring your own fire. If you want to get better, I’ll train you, but you gotta give it everything. ### Coaching Style I push you, sometimes even shout, but it’s to make you go beyond your limit. No timepass, no walking. If you slack, you’ll hear me: “Akul, walk pannalama?” (You want to just walk?). But when you kill it, I’ll be the first to shout, “Super Samarth, very good ra!” No spoon-feeding here. You’ll only get better if you work for it. ### Age Groups & Programs - Kids Grassroots (5-12): Basics first, but always with discipline and fun. Kids pick up grassroots football skills and learn why effort matters. - Youth Development (12-21): For those chasing something bigger. You train like you mean it, get ready for youth football leagues and serious matches. - Adults Fitness (35+): Not everyone’s chasing trophies. If you just want football to get fit, this batch is for you. ### How We Train Every session’s packed - tick-tock drills for ball control, cone dribbling, “no toe passes” rule, real feedback right there on the turf. I’m on the field with you, showing what pro football academy pathway looks like. ### The Path to Leagues If you’ve got the guts and grind, we give you a shot. Our teams play in KSFA Youth Premier League and BDFA divisions. We hold trials, and if you stand out, you get seen by the right people. ### Batches & Timings Training runs all year. We’ve got weekday and weekend batches so you can fit football into your life. ## Highlights Browse through FSK's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/footballschoolofkarnataka/age-group-football-coaching/featured) - [Video: This is how we train.

Started in namma Bengaluru, we’re more like a football family than an academy. Kids come in at 5, sometimes scared, sometimes wild, and we watch them grow—some end up playing in BDFA 'A' Division, like Ilence and Kalep. Festivals? We celebrate them all together, right on the pitch. Winning trophies is nice, but seeing our players become solid humans, that’s the real win for us. ### My work - **Football Coaching for All Ages**: We train kids (5-12), youth (U-17, U-21), adults, and have a fitness batch for 35+. - **Our Coaching Style**: No-nonsense, high-energy. Coaches yell instructions, focus on discipline and football basics. - **League & Tournament Focused**: We build teams for KSFA Youth Premier League, BDFA leagues, and national tournaments. - **Pathway to Pro**: Regular football trials, strong record for BDFA 'A' Division selection and pro opportunities. - **Flexible Training Schedule**: Monday-Saturday evenings, weekend mornings. Join anytime, we’re always training. ## More services from FSK - [Professional Football Pathway Program](https://mytribe.in/footballschoolofkarnataka/professional-football-pathway-program) · ₹2,500-7,000 per player per month (estimate) ## Experts similar to FSK on mytribe - [Youth Football Development Program by Bangalore City FC](https://mytribe.in/bangalorecityfc/youth-football-development-program) · ₹2,000-7,000 per month per child (estimate) · Sofia Public School - [Football Academy by Playsmart](https://mytribe.in/playsmartfootballacademy/football-academy) · ₹2,000-6,000 per month (estimate) · Playsmart Football and Cricket Academy - [Youth Football Training by Rush Football Academy](https://mytribe.in/rushfootballacademy/youth-football-training) · ₹2,000-4,500 per month per child (estimate) · SAI, Football Ground - [Youth Football Academy (U7-U17) by BTM Football Club](https://mytribe.in/btmfootballclub/youth-football-academy-u7-u17) · ₹2-10K per month (estimate) · Rush Arena Cooke Town | Football & Pickleball Club - [Football Academy for Kids by F12 Academy](https://mytribe.in/f12academy/football-academy-for-kids) · ₹1,800-5,500 per month per child (estimate) · Astro Arena - [Youth Football Academy Programs (Boys & Girls) by Blues Football Academy](https://mytribe.in/bluesfootballacademy/youth-football-academy-programs-boys-girls) · ₹1,500-4,000 per month per child (estimate) · S18 SPORTS ARENA - [Youth Football Academy by Raman Sports Academy](https://mytribe.in/ramansportsacademy/youth-football-academy) · ₹2,000-8,000 per child per month (estimate) · Raman Sports Academy - [Grassroots & Youth Football Training by BPSS](https://mytribe.in/bpss_football/grassroots-youth-football-training) · ₹1,500-4,000 per child per month (estimate) · Bangalore Premier Soccer School - BPSS - [Youth Football Coaching Programs by Elite Soccer School](https://mytribe.in/elitesoccerschool/youth-football-coaching-programs) · ₹1,500-4,500 per child per month (estimate) · Elite soccer school - JP NAGAR ( Head branch ) - [Sports Coaching by Nakshatra Sports Academy](https://mytribe.in/nakshatrafootballacademy/sports-coaching) · ₹1,500-4,500 per student per month (estimate) · Nakshatra Football Academy - [Youth Football Development Program by Bengaluru FC Soccer Schools](https://mytribe.in/bfcsoccerschools/youth-football-development-program) · ₹2,000-7,000 per child per month (estimate) · Super30 Football Academy - [High-Performance Youth Football Training by BYFL](https://mytribe.in/byfl_academy/high-performance-youth-football-training) · ₹6-12K per month (estimate) · BENGALURU YOUTH FOOTBALL LEAGUE ## Book To book FSK, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Age-Group%20Football%20Coaching%20by%20FSK.)
