About Jonathan
Jonathan Newman is the founder of Play Footy and a UEFA C qualified football coach with more than 10 years of grassroots coaching experience.
His coaching style is built around one simple idea: every player should leave a session feeling better than when they arrived — more confident, more comfortable on the ball and more motivated to keep improving.
Jonathan works with children, teenagers and adults of all abilities, from young players who want to build strong technical foundations, to adults returning to football after years away, players looking to improve specific parts of their game, and those simply wanting personalised coaching in a relaxed, supportive environment.
Alongside his UEFA C qualification, Jonathan holds current safeguarding, first aid and enhanced DBS credentials, as well as a Level 2 qualification in Understanding Children and Young People’s Mental Health. This helps shape a coaching approach that looks beyond just technique and recognises the importance of confidence, communication, enjoyment and wellbeing.
Jonathan has also completed an ultramarathon and has a strong personal interest in fitness, resilience and helping people become more active through football.
Having experienced a stroke himself, Jonathan also understands how powerful sport can be in rebuilding confidence, routine and a sense of connection. That experience has become an important part of the philosophy behind Play Footy and its Football For Everyone ethos.
Whether the goal is to improve first touch, passing, finishing, movement, decision-making, fitness or simply rediscover enjoyment in the game, every coaching session is tailored around the individual player.
