Private 1-on-1 Soccer Coaching & Group Training in Sydney
Kei Dribble Academy offers private 1-on-1 soccer coaching Sydney parents trust, alongside group football sessions for boys and girls aged 7–15 — building confidence, creativity, and ball control through structured, dribbling-focused training.
Our Story
Kei Dribble Academy is built around one skill: dribbling. Close control, beating a defender, playing with your head up — the things that turn a hesitant player into a confident one.
We’re Regate Dribble Academy’s Sydney franchise, so the training programs and session menus come straight from Japan: repetition, small-sided games, structured feedback, session after session.
Coach Keishiro runs the academy and leads every session himself — the coach who holds the qualifications is the one on the pitch with your child. He’s AFC-accredited, holding the Football Australia AFC C Diploma, with a current Working With Children Check.
Over 10 years as a player and coach, his work on technique and decision-making has helped players reach elite pathways — including professional academies.
“Dribbling is where confidence begins.” — Coach Kei
What Your Child Gains from Private 1-on-1 Coaching
Individual Feedback, Every Rep
In a 1-on-1 setting, every touch gets noticed and corrected in real time — players fix habits faster than they can in a group session.
Faster Technical Progress
Without sharing attention across a squad, coaching can focus entirely on the one or two things holding your child's game back.
Confidence Without the Pressure
Working one-on-one removes the fear of getting it wrong in front of teammates, so players try new moves and actually keep them.
A Pace Built Around Your Child
Sessions adjust in real time to your child's current level — never too easy, never overwhelming.
Train with Regate in Japan
Being Regate Dribble Academy’s Sydney franchise works in both directions. If your child is heading to Japan — a family holiday, a school trip, a soccer tour — Coach Keishiro can arrange for them to train with Regate while they’re there.
He organises it directly with the academy in Japan: the sessions, the timing, the details. Your child trains at the club the method comes from, with the coaches who run it.
Get in touch before you travel and we’ll set it up.
