Your trial — everything you need to know
45 minutes of smiles, skills & silliness
What happens in a Little Kickers trial, what to bring, and answers to the questions parents always ask. No experience needed — just bring your little one and a sense of fun.
Age-appropriate classes
Tailored to your child's age & stage
Each class is designed around what children at that age can do — and what they need to grow.
18m – 2.5yrs
Little Kicks
Parent & child classes focused on movement, bonding and getting comfortable in a group setting.
2.5 – 3.5yrs
Junior Kickers
Gentle independence through fun games — children start joining in without a parent on the pitch.
3.5 – 5yrs
Mighty Kickers
Building confidence, listening skills and basic football skills through structured, high-energy fun.
What to expect
Every class follows a familiar structure
It might look like play (and it is!) — but there's real learning behind every activity.
Warm-up activities
Songs, stretches and movement games to get little legs moving and break the ice.
Weekly themed games
Imagination-led for younger groups — jungle adventures, pirate ships, rocket launches. A different theme every week.
Skill development
Dribbling, shooting, balance and coordination — taught in a fun, pressure-free way.
Match play games
Older groups finish with simple, supervised match-play. Younger groups continue with cooperative games.
No pressure, ever
Children join in at their own pace
Some jump straight in, others take a few weeks — both are completely normal. Our coaches are trained to:
- Support shy or nervous children
- Build confidence gradually
- Keep everything positive and inclusive
You're part of it
Parent involvement
Parents always stay in the hall — your role just shifts as your child grows:
- In younger classes, parents join in and support
- As children move up, independence grows
- Parents always stay nearby and are part of the experience
On the day

What parents say
"First of all it was a great idea to have our little ones practice sport with a group of kids. There are many things which we like about and one of them is the way of coaching with story is cool. The routine followed was impressive and helps kids to get disciplined with it."
"It is a lovely morning for the kids and each week is different. I see my little girl getting more confident in being in a social setting which is a huge thing. As I observe her following instruction from the coaches, I see her progressing every week."
"The coaches and games for the children are so interactive, my little girl absolutely loves it and we've seen huge progression in her development since she started."
"The coaches are excellent with the children, the games they create are fantastic to encourage learning. My son is attending 2 years now and has already learned a lot."
"There aren't many programmes available to kids of this age that promote physical literacy in the manner that Little Kickers does. It's also a great mechanism for kids to develop their ability to follow instructions and develop their awareness of other kids around them."
