Kick Start - Toddler Soccer

Kick Start is our pre-school programme for 2 to 5 year old children. We use a variety of fun games to delight and engage kids in physical activity. Classes are professionally designed to develop motor skills, promote physical fitness and create self-confidence. We stress a non-competitive environment and promote fun above all else to ensure your child begins a lifelong commitment to sport and exercise. Our Coach-to-student ratio is kept small to maximise individual development.

Classes run in term-time throughout the year in blocks of 4-6 weeks. Children need no previous experience and in terms of what to wear, nothing special, just trainers and anything they'd feel comfortable in.

Tigers 2 & 3 year olds - Bingham Leisure Centre Saturday 08:30-9:15am

We teach kicking, running, control, and dribbling as well as listening and following instructions. We use a variety of fun games with lots of physical activity!  This class will focus on creative movement, the development of basic motor skills, and incorporate the initial skills of ball control. Each player will participate in a variety of fun and non-competitive games that encourage movement and will give each player the ability to develop at their own pace. No previous football experience needed. Classes will be 45 minutes long. 

Lions: 4 & 5 year olds - Bingham Leisure Centre Saturday 09:15-10:00am

We use a variety of fun games to develop balance, movement, and motor skills as well as listening to instructions. Very active and fun!  The emphasis is on individual motor skill development and fitness.  This class develops kicking, balance, dribbling, foot-eye coordination and running control by playing fun games. More challenging skill development games are played and some 4 on 4 matches are mixed in!  These sessions will continue to focus on the development of basic motor skills and the development of basic football skills with the introduction of more competitive games. No previous football experience necessary. Classes will be 45 minutes long.

Taster Sessions

We are sure your child will love Kickstart, but in case you need convincing, why not come along for one of our free tasters? They are held in January and September.

The next scheduled taster is:
Saturday 7th September 2019 - Bingham Leisure Centre - 9.15-10.00am

Saturday Soccer School: 6 - 8 year olds - Bingham Leisure Centre Saturday 10-11.00am

This course is open to both boys and girls aged 6, 7 & 8 and no experience is necessary, although we also hope it provides an extension of our successful Kickstart classes. Whether your child is too young or not ready to join a team yet, or if they would just like some extra practice, our Saturday Soccer School aims to provide the perfect environment for them to improve their football skills, finishing with some small-sided-games to put those skills into practice.

Please note the Saturday Soccer School sessions will be held outdoor, and in cases of inclement weather parents/guardians will be notified as soon as possible about postponements, which will then be added on to the end of the block if necessary.
