More Than Coaching. This is JCSS,
a place of belonging for you.
A Skegness-born community football project, built to make proper, professional-standard coaching accessible to every young player in the area, whatever their background or ability.
Built from a passion for community sport, and a hometown that deserved more of it.
JCSS was founded by Jack Walton, brought to life by years of experience in community football projects with Stockport County FC and Liverpool FC, and a belief that Skegness deserved the same standard of coaching found in professional academies.

It was always about more than football, it’s friendships, confidence, and a genuinely safe, inclusive space for every young person in our town to grow, whatever their background or ability.

Why parents choose JCSS.
Safeguarding First
Every JCSS coach is DBS-checked, our sessions are fully insured, and Jack acts as our dedicated Safeguarding & Welfare Officer.
UEFA Licensed Coaching
Our coaching team draws on real professional academy experience, including time with Liverpool FC’s International Academy, brought down to grassroots level.
A Real Development Pathway
Age-banded programmes from 2 to 16, each one building on the last, so every child has somewhere to grow into, not just a one-off session.
Genuine Local Partnerships
Working alongside real Lincolnshire clubs and organisations, not operating in isolation, so players have a route into the wider local football scene.
Focused On Development
Every session is built around individual development plans and real technical and tactical growth, not just keeping kids busy for an hour.
Trusted by families across Skegness
Fantastic, kind coaches who go the extra mile — Jack and the team have brought on my grandson’s confidence no end. He’s not shy to try new things anymore.
Would 100% recommend JCSS for any level player. Our lad has come on leaps and bounds since day one, now training in Jack’s invite-only sessions.
My son just finished the 3-day camp and loved every minute, even the stormy weather didn’t put him off. He learnt new skills and loved every second
JCSS has been a huge football opener for our son, his confidence has grown and the skills he’s learnt are showing in his own game. Jack and his team are true professionals.
Jack’s Community Soccer School doesn’t just build better players, they build character, discipline and teamwork. An incredible camp with high-level coaching throughout.
We can’t recommend Jack’s Community Soccer School highly enough. Jack and his whole team are friendly, encouraging, patient and brilliant with my son.
Fantastic, kind coaches who go the extra mile and have brought on my son’s confidence no end. Best of all, he counts down the days till his next practice!
Jack and all at JCSS are brillian, my 12 year old has been in the development programme for over a year and has learnt so much. Can’t recommend enough
Proud to work alongside
Without your support, our mission to bring quality football programmes and community empowerment to young players in Skegness wouldn’t be possible.
