Football Initiation Program 5-6 Year Olds
What is our Football Initiation Program?
This program provides opportunities to:
- discover their physical abilities and limitations through basic motor skills, incorporating the ball
- communicate, integrate, and cooperate within small groups with and without a ball
- orientate themselves in space whilst being aware of their surroundings
- visually experience the movement of the ball so that they can evaluate how to relate and react
- control the ball on the ground and in the air
Why our program should be your child’s entry into football?
- Expert coaching – Vio has over 10 years of experience coaching with kids and relevant qualifications in the Discovery Phase (ages 5-7) and Skill Acquisition Phases (ages 7-12) .
- Facilities – Players will get to train on a synthetic futsal court. The playing area is fenced, which prevents the ball from going out of play, increasing time spent on the ball.
- Small groups – A low player to coach ratio means your child gets the focus and support they need to learn effectively, catering to individual needs.
- Practices – Players will be consistently engaged with the ball and active participants throughout the entire session – no waiting in lines! The practices are designed to satisfy a young player’s need to possess the ball for as long as possible.
Skill Outcomes:
- Dribbling the ball
- Receiving, controlling, passing, and shooting the ball
- Taking the ball away from an opponent (tackling)
- Considering teammates or opponents in attack or defence (teamwork)
My aim,
Is to support the healthy development of children who start out motivated to practice their favourite sport, football.
