Join us in Dubai with our Football Course running between 27th and 31st October 2025 for a brilliant family holiday — with football led by Michael Owen.
Set within the iconic Jumeirah Beach Hotel, this Football Escapes experience blends five-star comfort, sunshine, and unforgettable coaching from one of England’s greatest goal scorers.
Each morning, your children will train with Michael Owen and our UEFA-licensed coaches on pristine pitches right by the sea. Meanwhile, parents can enjoy a moment to themselves — whether that’s lounging by the pool, enjoying spa time, or relaxing with a coffee in the sun.
Come the afternoon, it’s all about quality time together — at the beach, in the pool, or exploring everything this world-famous resort has to offer.
Add in the Parents’ Game, Q&A sessions, and shared moments throughout the week, and you’ve got a holiday that’s built for families, not just footballers.
