Naftal’s purpose

Football is the door.
The future is the goal.

Magic Boys Football Academy was created to give young people somewhere to belong, something positive to work toward and adults who refuse to give up on them.

Led by Naftal and a team of three coaches, every session goes beyond drills and match preparation. The boys learn discipline, responsibility, teamwork and the difference between right and wrong.

“My aim is to uplift their voices, remove them from the street and give them more education.”— Naftal, founder and coach

One pathway, three squads

Growing together,
at every stage.

From first touch to senior competition, each age group is part of the same culture: show up, work hard, respect others and lift the next player.
