Kickstart the Weekend with Watford Saturday Football!

Is your child ready to swap morning screen time for high-octane action on the pitch?

Join us at Knutsford Primary Academy every weekend for the most exciting Saturday football sessions in Watford! Whether your child is just starting their football journey or looking to sharpen their pro skills, our sessions are the absolute highlight of the week.

We believe Saturday mornings should be about three things: staying active, building confidence, and having an incredible amount of fun. Our environment is safe, friendly, and perfectly suited for young players of all abilities to thrive and make lifelong friends.

Why Choose Xtra Time's Saturday Football?

We don’t just “play” football; we create an experience that children genuinely look forward to.

At Knutsford Primary Academy, we make full use of the school’s excellent facilities, including expansive outdoor playing fields and a large indoor hall for all-weather play. It is the perfect, secure setting for children to play their hearts out.

What a typical morning looks like: Our sessions are packed with variety to keep every player engaged. We kick things off with dynamic warm-ups, followed by pro skills and drills to master ball control, passing, and shooting.

The excitement reaches a fever pitch with our epic penalty shootouts and high-energy matches, giving every child the chance to feel like a stadium superstar.

Why XTRA Time?

At Xtra Time, we make sports fun, inclusive, and engaging for every child, regardless of their ability or experience.

At Xtra Time, we do more than teach sports; we help children develop key life skills that will benefit them in all aspects of life.

Our team is made up of dedicated professionals who are not only skilled in coaching but are also passionate about inspiring young athletes.

We believe that introducing children to sport in a positive way lays the foundation for a healthy and active lifestyle.

Win Big and Celebrate Success!

At Xtra Time, every child’s effort deserves a trophy moment. We focus on positive reinforcement to help children grow into confident young athletes. Every single week, we hold our famous awards ceremony to celebrate the hard work put in on the grass.

Could your child be our next winner? Medals are awarded every week to our Star Performers for brilliant attitude and teamwork, alongside our Penalty Kings and Queens who show nerves of steel from the spot. We are all about building that “can-do” spirit!
