Meet Our Coaches

Lead Coaches
Jess
Lead Coach
From representing her country in running to helping little footballers find their feet, Jess knows a thing or two about sport! As one of our Lead Coaches, she brings energy, encouragement and a love of being active to every session. Her favourite part? Watching the children grow in confidence, develop their football skills and leave with big smiles each week! When she's not coaching, you'll find her exploring the world, playing sport or enjoying Italian food. Her dream superpower? Flying, so her next adventure is never too far away! ✈️
Hannah
Lead Coach
A former gymnast with a collection of medals and trophies, Hannah loves a bit of friendly competition (although losing isn't her favourite thing! 😂). As one of our Lead Coaches, she brings plenty of energy, laughter and encouragement to every session. Her favourite part of coaching? Building special bonds with the children, helping them feel comfortable and confident, and seeing those big smiles! When she's not coaching, you'll find her reading, spending time with family and friends or attempting a game of tennis (her words, she's terrible!). Her dream superpower? Freezing time, probably to squeeze even more fun into the day! ⏰
Ralph
Coach
With 11 years of football experience under his belt, Ralph knows his way around a football pitch! He's even played at Highbury, Fleetwood Town's stadium, and Bloomfield Road, home of Blackpool FC! Ralph loves seeing the children leave sessions with big smiles, especially when they're improving week after week. When he's not coaching, you'll probably find him playing five-a-side with friends, watching football or enjoying his favourite food, focaccia! His dream superpower? Teleportation, so he could travel anywhere in the world and still be home in time for tea! 🌍✨
Lexi
Coach
Football mad, full of energy and always up for a laugh! Lexi loves seeing the big smiles on children's faces as they grow in confidence and develop their communication skills. She's even been scouted by Blackpool FC! When she's not coaching at Ickle Skills, you'll find her working at Bounce and Play, playing football herself or looking after her ducks! And if she could have one superpower? Flying, of course! 🦸♀️
- HeidiCoach
Heidi
Coach
From dancing to flying through the air on an aerial hoop, Heidi is full of surprises! She's even won 2nd place in a national aerial hoop competition! With her caring, patient and friendly personality, Heidi loves making little besties at Ickle Skills and helping every child grow in confidence while doing what they love. When she's not coaching, you'll find her dancing, practising her circus skills or busy with school. Her dream superpower? Super strength, although with her circus skills, she's already pretty super! 💪✨
Jack
Coach
- RachelCoach
Rachel
Coach
Whether she's running a 10K, planning her next adventure or belting out a karaoke classic, Rachel is always up for a laugh! She's currently training for a half marathon, although keeping up with Coach Jess is proving to be a challenge! 😂 Rachel loves watching the children grow in confidence, improve their counting skills and make new friends every week. With her caring, patient and slightly wacky personality, she makes sure there's never a dull moment at Ickle Skills! And football runs in the family too, her uncle was an Everton goalkeeper back in the 60s! Her dream superpower? Teleportation, so she can skip the traffic and explore the world! 🌍✨
