At Kixx, we believe a great football academy is built not just on talent, but on dedication, leadership, and a passion for helping children thrive. One person who perfectly embodies these values is Jamie Green, the driving force behind the Kixx Sheffield franchise.
From Professional Footballer to Franchise Success
Jamie’s journey with Kixx began in April 2018 after an impressive career as a professional footballer, including playing for Rotherham United and even scoring the last-ever goal at their old Millmoor stadium.
His transition from the professional game to running a thriving football academy was seamless. Drawing on his deep understanding of the sport, Jamie quickly established Kixx Sheffield as one of the most successful and respected academies in our network.
“The move from player to business owner was a natural one,” Jamie explains. “Kixx gave me the opportunity to stay connected to the game I love while making a positive difference in children’s lives.”

Leading with Dedication and Passion
Since joining Kixx, Jamie has built Kixx Sheffield into a vibrant and in-demand academy. His sessions are known for their energy, positivity, and focus on child development — both on and off the pitch.
Under his leadership, hundreds of children each week learn essential football skills while also building confidence, teamwork, and friendships that can last a lifetime.
“Seeing a child’s confidence grow is the best reward,” Jamie says. “Football is just the tool — it’s really about helping them believe in themselves.”
Jamie’s commitment extends beyond coaching. He has developed a talented team of coaches who share his values and attention to detail. Together, they’ve made Kixx Sheffield a model of quality and consistency — reflected in the fantastic feedback from parents and families.
The Results Speak for Themselves
Jamie’s success is clear in both numbers and smiles. His Net Promoter Score (NPS) consistently ranks among the highest in the Kixx network, showing just how valued his sessions are by families.
Parents regularly share stories of their children’s growing confidence and enjoyment, highlighting Jamie’s ability to create a safe, inclusive, and inspiring environment.
“We’re so proud of the impact Jamie has made in Sheffield,” says Ben Hunter, Founder of Kixx. “His professionalism, energy, and genuine care for the children truly reflect what Kixx stands for.”
A New Chapter: Congratulations, Jamie and Emma!
Away from the pitch, Jamie recently celebrated a major personal milestone — his marriage to his long-time partner, Emma.
After eight and a half years together, the couple tied the knot surrounded by family and friends. From everyone at Kixx, we send heartfelt congratulations and wish them a lifetime of love, happiness, and success.
