Little Kickers
At Little Kickers 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. It’s the perfect way to ignite an enthusiasm for sport that will stay with them for life.
There are four different classes tailored specifically to the needs of children between 18 months to 8 years.
We have been running classes for the last 15 years in Glasgow and currently have various venues across Glasgow, East Renfrewshire, Paisley and Uddingston.
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.
It’s an approach that has bagged us awards and helped us expand globally. And like all our Kickers, we never stop learning. We’re continually improving and updating our classes, based on feedback and input from child health specialists as well as our network of over 2,500 football coaches worldwide.
