THE SHAPING
Talent got them here. Craft keeps them.
Façonné means shaped — fashioned by hand. It is the stage for the player who has just signed their first professional contract and now faces a truth the youth game never prepared them for: talent got them here, but only craft keeps them. The first and second professional years decide the shape of everything that follows.
Here the architecture goes deeper and narrower — a more individualised programme built around the specific demands of the senior game and the specific body and role of the player. Façonné is the difference between a professional who survives their first contract and one who earns their second.

Within every block, the player is developed across the whole picture — technical, physical, psychological, social and nutritional. We work deliberately on the areas that need improving while reinforcing the strengths that make the player who they are.
EACH MONTH · FOUR SESSIONS
Video analysis — teaching the game, not just the drill
WITH MATCH FOOTAGE · VEO OR HUDL
1 analysis session + 3 on-pitch sessions
Video analysis is offered to players who can provide footage of their matches throughout the season. The month opens with an analysis hour: we review recent matches — slowing the game down, finding the one pattern costing the player most, and teaching them to read and solve it independently. That single priority then shapes the next three weeks on the pitch.
WITHOUT MATCH FOOTAGE
4 on-pitch sessions
Players who can’t provide match footage have four on-pitch sessions each month — the same season plan, the same five areas and the same quarterly reviews.

IN THEIR WORDS
“
After a prolific season, I needed some guidance for the next step in my career. Sam referred me to The French Touché, and since then my football journey has gone from progression to success. From Chesterfield I moved to Watford, where I spent a year and a half, before moving to Spain, my home country. The coaching, the mentoring and the ongoing support throughout the season are second to none. I highly recommend TFT.
