We have four different football classes each tailored to a different age group. However, we have two core beliefs that we take into every session. Firstly, we believe in something we call “Play not Push”. It means teaching football in a fun, pressure-free environment. We want to give children a positive introduction to sport as a whole, not just football, so they’re more likely to stay healthy and active throughout their lives. Secondly, we believe football can be educational. Coached in the right way it can stimulate imagination and aid early development skills such as learning colours and numbers, following instructions and playing as a team.

About Little Kicks, 1.5 - 2.5 yrs

 (Parent participation required)

Little Kicks is the perfect introduction to the fun world of Little Kickers.

Children are introduced to the basics of football (dribbling, striking, goal scoring etc.) in a play-oriented yet structured format, using child-friendly but realistic football equipment.

Each child is given the opportunity to work within their ability level but taught in a group environment.

Classes also provide a fantastic opportunity for you to assist in your child’s early education, helping them develop physically as well as improving cognitive and social skills.

KEY FEATURES:

- 45-minute class
- Weekly classes
- One coach with up to 12 children OR two coaches for 13 to 16 children
- Each child receives a football kit
- 4 unique badges to collect across the Little Kicks programme

LEARNING TO LEARN

The main focus of Little Kicks is what we call ‘learning to learn’.

Our coaches are taught specific techniques that enable children to get the most out of our classes.

We believe that play is one of the greatest development tools and when combined with repetition and structure, ensures effective learning.

Classes involve a number of games that require parents to put on their running shoes and get actively involved in the session.

However, some games are specifically targeted at developing independence. These transition games mean children as young as two will be able to play independently of their parent or guardian.

FUNdamentals & Badge Certification

Little Kicks teaches the fundamentals of football in a fun learning environment through a series of games using our tried and tested structure.

Our Little Kicks receive quarterly badges which highlight the key physical, cognitive and football skills they are exposed to in our programme. Our Little Kickers absolutely love showing their badges to their teammates and family!

The primary goal is to settle children into the structure of the session, improve their confidence and attention, develop their basic motor skills and develop a good kicking technique.
