NXTGenFootball's mission is to help players unlock their full potential, refine their skills, and prepare them for higher-level opportunities in football.

NXTGenFootball training is by invitation or application only. To ensure the highest quality, I accept players who demonstrate high potential, real commitment, and a true passion for football. Apply online, and I’ll contact you for the next steps.

After submitting an application, I will review the details and contact you. Subject to availability, players may be invited to participate in a trial session, allowing me to assess their skill level, attitude, and readiness to join the programme. A one-off fee of $50.00 is charged for the trial session. The trial session is 45 minutes. If your child is not accepted to the programme, then there is still a lot of value provided to them during the trial session.

As I actively play and coach teams, space at NXTGenFootball is extremely limited. This ensures every player receives personalised attention and top-quality coaching. Spots are offered on a first-come, first-served basis to invited or accepted applicants. If all spaces are filled, a waiting list is available for those who wish to be considered as openings arise.

I work exclusively with players who are dedicated to improving their game. Consistent attendance and effort in training are essential to stay in the programme.

Training sessions are held at least once per week to ensure consistent player development while allowing for a balance with other commitments. While a structured schedule is key, there is some flexibility, which can be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Most kids get group training, but to truly develop, they need one-on-one coaching. NXTGenFootball provides exclusive individual sessions with Ben Wallace, a professional footballer. These sessions are tailored to each player's unique needs and include advanced technical drills, such as precision passing, first-touch control, position-specific movement, and game-realistic scenarios. With personalised feedback and a focus on both technical ability and football IQ, players will become well-rounded athletes, growing both on and off the field.

Parents are welcome to observe sessions, as long as it doesn’t disrupt the focus of the players and coach.

There are three NXTGen Experiences available: Kickstart ($600) – 5 sessions over 5 weeks, Accelerate ($1,250) – 12 sessions over 3 months, and Elevate ($2,350) – 24 sessions over 6 months. Each experience includes weekly 1-on-1 training, but Accelerate and Elevate also provide additional support, including monthly coaching Q&A calls, mindset and recovery strategies, discounts on training kits, and other performance-enhancing resources. The more you commit, the more you save, with the higher-tier experiences reducing the cost per session and providing greater long-term development benefits. Alternatively, individual sessions are available at $125 per hour, though one-off sessions are less effective for long-term progress. There are no additional fees unless specified.

I understand that life happens. Please notify me at least 24 hours in advance if your child cannot attend a session so we can re-schedule accordingly. If cancellation is made less than 24 hours in advance, no refund for that session will be issued.

Yes, trial sessions are available, however, the trial is by invite or application only. The trial session allows your child to experience the NXTGenFootball training style and ensures the programme is the right fit for them. If you decide not to continue after the trial, that’s perfectly fine, but the trial fee will still apply.

I work with youth males and females aged 10 to 15 years old, focusing on this critical development stage to help players build strong technical skills, tactical awareness, and confidence on the field.

Sessions are primarily held at Western Springs in Auckland, a high-quality venue featuring turf and field options along with excellent facilities. This provides an ideal environment for effective training. However, there is flexibility around the training location depending on your needs, and arrangements can be made to accommodate other suitable venues. Please note that using a different venue may incur additional costs.

Yes, group training or team sessions are available but are considered on a case-by-case basis. These sessions are booked separately to the 1-1 and are tailored to meet the specific needs of the group or team.

I understand that unexpected situations can arise, and I offer flexible cancellation policies for long-term commitments. We’ll discuss the details in person to ensure the best solution for you.

Yes! My approach goes beyond just skills training. With the Accelerate and Elevate experiences, players receive additional guidance on mindset, recovery, and nutrition to support their overall performance. These packages include monthly coaching Q&A calls and exclusive resources to help your child develop both physically and mentally for long-term success.

While progress is not formally documented or reported, I closely monitor each player’s development through regular assessments, feedback, and goal-setting. I believe in maintaining open communication with parents to keep you informed about your child’s growth and areas for improvement.
