Kinetic Foundation was founded after the 2011 England riots by former Crystal Palace coach Harry Hudson and James Fotheringham.[2] The academy provides its players an education,[3] mandatory volunteer opportunities,[4] and opportunities to play for an American college on scholarships.[5]
In January 2026, former Kinetic Foundation coach Calum McFarlane became interim head coach of Premier League side Chelsea, following the firing of Enzo Maresca.[6][7] Following Chelsea's appointment of Liam Rosenior as head coach on 6 January 2026, Calum McFarlane was appointed as a first-team coach, and Kinetic co-founder Harry Hudson was appointed as U21s Head Coach.[8]
