The Jay Rosa Academy, one of the UK’s leading freestyle football programmes for children, has announced Dan Gaze Support Services as its official sponsor, reinforcing its commitment to youth development and mental well-being.
Dan Gaze Support Services, nationally recognised for their work with children and young people, specialises in mentoring, mental health support, and youth empowerment.
Their partnership with the academy ensures that young participants benefit not only from elite football coaching but also from guidance in confidence, resilience, and personal development. More about their work can be found at www.dangazesupport.org.
Jay Rosa, nationally celebrated for his freestyle football performances and national tours, welcomed the sponsorship:


“Partnering with Dan Gaze Support Services allows us to enhance the academy experience for every child. Their expertise in youth empowerment and mental health perfectly complements our goal of creating a safe, inspiring space where children can grow both on and off the pitch.”
As the academy relaunches across Hertfordshire, the sponsorship will support structured sessions that combine freestyle coaching with games, challenges, competitions, and mentoring. Children aged five and upwards will develop football skills alongside teamwork, self-confidence, and resilience, ensuring the programme nurtures both sporting talent and emotional well-being.
Dan Gaze added: “This sponsorship is about more than football. It’s about giving children the tools to succeed in life, helping them develop confidence, resilience, and pride in what they can achieve.”
The partnership highlights the growing focus in youth sport on combining technical development with mental health support, demonstrating how sport can positively impact young people’s lives both on and off the pitch.
