Join us in Dubai for something a bit special, with our Football Course running between 26th and 30th October 2026. October half term, done properly, with football built into it.
At Jumeirah Beach Hotel, the Football Escapes experience comes with a view. You’ve got a private beach on the Arabian Gulf, five pools, and the Burj Al Arab on the skyline, alongside a football programme that keeps the kids active, engaged, and loving it.
Each morning starts on the pitch, where children train with Wayne Rooney and our UEFA licensed coaches in a relaxed, supportive setting. It’s focused, but still fun, and it suits all abilities. While that’s happening, parents get time to enjoy the resort, whether that’s the beach, the Talise Spa, or a long lunch at one of the 30 plus restaurants across Jumeirah’s Dubai resorts.
Then the afternoons slow things down. Time together by the pool, out on the water, or letting the kids loose at the KiDS Club while you do very little at all.
The week builds nicely as it goes on. Shared experiences like the Parents’ Game, Q&As, FE Games Night and medal celebrations give it a rhythm, and bring everyone into it.
How it works
You book your full holiday through Football Escapes, and we take care of everything else. That includes your stay at Jumeirah Beach Hotel, access to the football course, and flights if you need them. It’s all handled in one place.
Most families stay for 7 nights or longer, with the Football Course running Monday to Friday.
To guarantee your child’s place on the course, the holiday needs to be booked through Football Escapes.
Every Football Escapes holiday includes:
Swap the grey of October for sunshine, football and proper family time. Half term doesn’t get much better than this.
Train with legends of the game, and be coached by our ambassadors and our UEFA licensed football coaches.
Each family will get a signed football shirt from one of our ambassadors, a perfect keepsake to remember their fantastic holiday.
Your family will receive a personalised video message from one of our football legends before your holiday, making their experience even more special.
Each child attending the course will be provided with a personalised football kit for them to keep, ensuring they look and feel like a pro on the pitch.
Every Football Escapes holiday blends luxury, family time, and unforgettable football. Across a seven-night plus stay at one of Dubai's top family resorts, your children will train with football legends and our UEFA-licensed coaches while you relax, explore, or join in on the fun.
