Insight into Cornwall PFC

At Cornwall Powerchair Football Club, every training session is an opportunity to develop technical skills, teamwork, belief, confidence and communication.

We are proud of the focus and determination shown by the team, as we worked on many aspects of the game including defending, attacking, movement, first touch and precision to prepare for the upcoming regional fixtures in Taunton.

We break down the drills into manageable phases, to understand how we want to play, and this strategy has showed evident improvement.

Our Aim: Developing our game understanding, style of play and implementing our team’s philosophy in how we want to play, is a key focus for us going forwards.

One of our core principles as a club is building on the basics. These fundamentals are the foundation of everything we aim to achieve as a club.

We aim to challenge the players with match-related drills to generate growth and implement the learning from our match preparation into regional games.

Cornwall PFC is more than just a team – it’s a community, and we would love for you to be part of it.

Please get in touch if you would like to take part and see us in action.
