VISION Our aim is to provide India, with football players of the highest calibre who can represent us, all across the world and promote football as a career choice while increasing the popularity of the sport and quality of football in India.` The inspiration The Oranje as the name suggests seeks inspiration from the Dutch football team and more specifically the Dutch philosophy of Total football. The way football has evolved over the years, clearly shows the importance of skill and technique over physical play and endurance. Football has various styles and tactics involved and each way has its merits and is the right way. Ethos We at ‘The Oranje’ believe we can help kids play football in a more enjoyable, productive and efficient way that will change their outlook towards football coaching and help them realize their dream through proper coaching and guidance. There are basically three stages in football as a child develops. A technical stage, a tactical stage and an information stage. The physical development takes place on its own as the child enjoys playing and thus running with the ball. But warm-up, conditioning, cool down and a proper diet are very important if a talented kid wants to realize his full potential and hence is a crucial part of our setup. Oranje Academy - The Total football coach We at ‘The Oranje’ feel it is very important to add to the child’s natural ability by coaching and guiding them in a free environment rather than teaching them wherein they are forced to follow our lead and copy us. Every child has a talent and we approach each of them differently and the intention is to improve each and every child and not just focus on making the already good players better. We stress on punctuality, team work, hard work, discipline and respect for the opponent.
