Meet the Coaches

Sonny Pike
Sonny Pike was well known as being England's biggest prospect in the mid-late 90's. He was well known for his technical ability and scoring hundreds of goals per season. Sonny was the only English kid ever to be approached and go to the Ajax Academy! At the age of 13, his legs were insured for £1 million after winning Sky Sports Awards in 1995 and 1996. Sonny became famous for being the 'Coca-Cola kid' at Wembley Stadium, with opportunity to show his ball skills in front of 80,000 people.
Sonny is using his experience and skills to develop football training programmes offering individuals the chance to receive high-quality 1-2-1 coaching tailored to their needs and focused on their goals, after over 15 years experience in the game.
Played at: Leyton Orient, Chelsea FC, QPR, Crystal Palace, Stevenage FC, Barnet FC

I'm worried about my child staying overnight
Since starting The Nationals in 2022, we've seen many young children have concerns & worries on day 1, with parents deciding to stay locally overnight just incase they get the call! We're proud that so far, every child has stayed the night, and by night 2 are absolutely loving the experience away from parents! For some, it's a huge milestone and achievement, and we make sure we recognise that. Many of the younger kids come away with a sense of pride and added confidence which is incredible to see.
If you're still worried, contact us and we'll be happy to answer any other questions to ease your concerns
What is the booking process?
When booking a place on The Nationals, you will be asked to complete a few key details before adding to your cart.
Here, you'll be asked any key information about your child, like allergies, disabilities, emergency contact number etc.
There is also the opportunity to write any additional information we should know about the attendee. Feel free to reach out to info@thenationals.co.uk for any questions or requests

Room requests
Rooms are a mixture of sizes and spaces are limited, so we cannot guarantee any room preferences that are expressed before/after booking. We ensure that keepers are roomed together in the most appropriate way.
Please submit any room requests to info@thenationals.co.uk. You also have the chance to do this when buying your camp in the additional information box.
How will different abilities be split?
We're passionate about providing an incredible coaching experience, so we'll always ensure groups sizes are kept small, with a coach:player ratio between 1:8-15.
Initially, we'll split these by age groups. However we're vigilant during the first few sessions to move players around to ensure they get the maximum benefit over the camp by matching their ability to the correct group.
