Under 12

At this age group, we maintain a strong emphasis on our “Play to Develop” philosophy, while also introducing elements of “Play to Compete” for the A team, preparing players for the transition to the U14s. Building on the foundation laid in the U10s, players continue their development journey with a growing focus on tactical awareness and in-game understanding, as we encourage them to grasp the strategic aspects of the game.

Alongside technical development, we place importance on overall fitness and nutrition. Players will come to understand their footballing A, B, C’s (Awareness, Body Shape, Control, and Concentration) while appreciating the value of physical fitness and a proper diet.

At Fox Football Vietnam, our coaches operate a rotation system at this age level, striving to provide equal opportunities for all players to actively participate within their chosen team. We firmly believe that player development always takes precedence over results.

In the U12 category, players continue to explore different roles within the team rather than being assigned fixed positions. However, they will also begin to develop a clearer understanding of specific positions, further expanding their knowledge of the game and their individual contribution to it.
