what are we about?
HoLa Skoko ® is a brand new football school that was established in April 2017. HSFC has been created with the idea of providing high quality training sessions to players aged 4 – 16 years and ensuring development is done correctly. One of our mottos are develop first and winning will come naturally and this is something that HoLa Skoko ® really strives towards. We pride ourselves on the quality of training and our number one goal is to ensure players improve with each passing session. We also take videos of players and upload them on social media networks such as YouTube, Instagram and Facebook for greater exposure as well as creating player profiles for each player so when the opportunities come we are always ready. HoLa Skoko ® also has a first team and reserve squad that plays in the Deep South LFA with aspirations of promotion to SAB League. This ensures we have a full structure from under 4 to Seniors making us one of the biggest structures in Lenasia and JHB South.
Coaching philosophy
Our coaching philosophies ensure training sessions are both fun and effective. Our coaching methods are innovative, unique and we use all types of equipment to promote effective and efficient learning of the game. We incorporate UK, American, African and Brazilian training styles to assist each player in reaching their full potential. Our coaches tackle the fundamentals of football in creative ways ensuring players achieve in all four areas. These areas are technical, tactical, physical and psychological and this creates the base of our training sessions.
The aim of HoLa Skoko ® is to ensure the correct techniques of football are learnt at grassroots level and are then carried out into the more competitive ages. We believe that a strong foundation will allow for a great football future. We assist players in acquiring trials, prepare them for these trials and then manage them once they have been accepted into the development structure.

TESTIMONIALS
Imraan Poonan and Fatima Ismail
"Mohammed Salman joined in July this year and has not played for any club before. He was a very shy little boy and since joining hola skoko he has improved immensely both in his soccer ability aswell as his confidence. Coach Jameel took him under his wing and in August he was voted player of the month. He has advanced to the bigger team and Nishaan pushes them to be there best and to keep on trying. Hola skoko is not only an academy focusing on football but develops these little boys to be confident and focus on interacting as a team and developing the skills needed"
Muhammed and Sameera Amoojee
"We just wanted to drop you a note to let you know how delighted we have been with Hola Skoko.
Our son’s Faizaan and Fareez started soccer training with you this year and they have loved every single session, developed some great skills and looks forward to Monday nights. As parents, we are always looking for a place that’s not only fun, but develops our kid’s skills and each week we see the kids concentrate on different drills and develop a wider understanding of the game. Your passionate delivery of lessons and engaging format are fantastic and it’s evident that the kids listen and respond well to your style.
We are always impressed with both Coach Nish & Jameel’s positive and enthusiastic approach to player development. They have a natural ability to gain respect amongst their players, this allows them to get the very best out of each player. They always seem to have fun during their sessions and this undoubtedly makes the players feel very relaxed, this is crucial when technical ability and skills need to be mastered in order for players to fulfil potential. They have excellent knowledge and understanding of the game and have the ability to correct weaknesses without making players doubt their own ability. Their sessions are always creative and professionally delivered, most of all they are fun, enjoyable to watch and help each player progress their skill levels and technical ability”
Thanks and keep up the great work!”
Ebrahim and Ayesha Cassim
"With many years of experience in soccer management and coaching, we were tired of the mundane and even ended up stopping our kids from playing soccer as it was futile and tedious.
We came across an advert for a soccer academy that seemed perfect for our boys as we did not want to expose them to the pressure of competitive soccer at such a young age.
Only once they joined the academy, did we really appreciate what they were being exposed to. Professional coaching and pure love for the game.
The coaches are highly skilled and experienced and the kids are enjoying themselves thoroughly. We love the added fun aspects and challenges as well as the regular rewards that keep them motivated. We are so glad our boys are active once again and enjoying a sport that they love so dearly.
Thank you so much for bringing this unique soccer academy where it was much needed in our community.
You really have a superb vision to provide the kids with world class facilities and exposure and we pray that you will only go from strength to strength"
Regan and Khushica Singh
Our two boys, age 5 and 7 showed interest in playing soccer. We put them in a local soccer club, and they complained about going every week.
I changed them to Hola Skoko and what a big difference. They look forward to it every week. The skills taught by the experienced coaches together with allowing the boys to play and have fun accordingly, has grown the love of the sport for my boys.
The training is professional in terms of the skills taught and also with regard to the mental conditioning which is what we love. They learn to listen and follow instructions given to them. Plus the added benefit of being active and having a good workout. I would recommend it to all parents of boys who love the game, as well as a means of teaching kids team spirit and just having fun.
