Little Kickers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At Little Kickers the focus is very much on fun. We offer a national network of informal yet professionally run training classes where enthusiastic boys and girls (18 months – 7th birthday) are given a helping hand to stand on their own two feet.

Of course we believe that a head start in sport is a fantastic investment in the future and naturally we’d be pleased as punch if any of our former pupils go on to greater glories in the golden game. However, Little Kickers is not a guaranteed passport to soccer fame! The real goal of Little Kickers is to use soccer as a fun forum to instill in children a little extra confidence, coordination, control and sense of camaraderie, which we feel will stand them in very good stead for the future.
