Northwest Football Academy is based in Mukilteo, WA and has an extensive staff of certified trainers and coaches with experience at all levels of football from the NFL, college, high school and youth football ranks. At Northwest Football Academy, we love football and the many life lessons it teaches. We love to share our experiences as players and coaches to help the younger player achieve their goals. We believe, more important than winning, is that with failure you are given opportunity and it is here we grow the most.
Our program focuses on total body & mind development and we train our players to have a strong core and cardiovascular endurance as well as focus on the proper techniques of all aspects of football. We provide chalk talk sessions and help develop a player’s ability to understand the nuances of offensive and defensive strategies of the varying types of formations and schemes. We also focus heavily on the importance of academic performance and its impact that is more important than the effort given to improving their 40 times or vertical jump.
It is our mission to aid as many athletes and families as possible to reach their goals of maximizing their child’s potential on and off the field. While many in sports today focus on winning today with not much concern for tomorrow; we dedicate our program to giving our players the opportunity to go forward with the tools needed to get better everyday at their position, as a teammate, as a son or daughter, and in the classroom and community. They understand the importance and value of knowing their weaknesses as well as their strengths.
With decades of coaching experience and developing players through local youth & H.S. programs, the NFA founders decided they needed to provide a service that is available to any player and or family that wanted an opportunity to improve their game and maximize their ability.
After many years of helping families who were concerned their children were being under developed, we thought a local academy program for football players, new or experienced was long overdue. Every sport has access to services to give their kids an advantage and or the needed extra training; except football...until now! Like the batting cages and hitting instructors, the basketball gyms and skill coaches, football now has a great collection of experienced instructors and certified trainers to improve every aspect of your child’s game. Families no longer have to wait until gear issue and the late summer start of practice to get better and ready to play football.
Going forward players within NW Football Academy will and can train as early in the off season as January to begin preparing for the upcoming season. Our programs include Skill Development Sessions, Ultimate Performance Camps, Combine Camps, Summer Day Camps, Passing Tournaments, Private Sessions (position based), Small Group Sessions, Coaching Clinics, and much more. Our program even provides a great in-season strength and maintenance program that helps maintain growth and prevent injury.
