A unique and innovative Early Years football programme, ‘Little Dribblers’ is designed to engage young children aged 3 to 5 years old in the beginning of their football journey, focussing on dribbling, movement skills and co-ordination. Our ‘Little Dribblers’ programme delivers specifically designed sessions aimed at raising confidence and independence within your child  

Ran by our specialist coaches, ‘Little Dribblers’ ensures that youngsters develop problem-solving skills and introduces concepts such as spatial awareness, all with a football at their feet! 

For children younger than 3 years we have 'Little Dribblers with Parents'. This programme allows the child and parent to engage and complete the activities together to ensure the child is comfortable in a new environment.
