Open Play Development (OPD) is a football development centre offering inclusive sessions for children aged 4–18. We run boys, girls, mixed, SEND, and 1-to-1 sessions, creating a supportive environment where every player can enjoy football, build confidence, and develop their skills.

Our coaching focuses on fun, learning, and player development, helping young players grow technically, physically, and socially through engaging sessions. At OPD, we believe football should be accessible to everyone.
