Football & Fun (Ages 5–11)

Our Football & Fun classes are energetic, welcoming weekly sessions for boys and girls aged 5–11 of all abilities. Whether your child loves football already or is just getting started, we create a space where everyone can join in, feel included, and enjoy being part of a team.

Each new starter receives their own All Abilities Active football kit - helping them feel proud, confident, and ready to play (although they’re always welcome to wear whatever feels comfortable).

What to Expect

Every session follows a familiar, predictable routine to help children feel safe and settled. Within that structure, sessions are packed with fun football-themed activities such as:

  • Dribbling through colourful obstacle courses

  • Fun target practice and goal-shooting challenges

  • Team mini-games that encourage passing and teamwork

  • Movement based warm-ups and confidence building ball skills

We introduce a new skill focus each month - for example dribbling, passing, shooting, or teamwork - building confidence through repetition, encouragement, and lots of positive praise.

More Than Just Football

These sessions help children to:

  • Improve coordination, balance, and overall movement

  • Develop social skills and teamwork

  • Practise turn-taking and communication

  • Build confidence week by week

  • Make friends and enjoy being active together

Most importantly, children are free to join in at their own pace. Watching, taking breaks, or easing into activities is absolutely okay. We celebrate effort, smiles, and progress - however that looks.

Stay & Play

Our sessions are stay-and-play, meaning parents and carers remain throughout. You can join in, support when needed, and gently encourage independence as your child grows in confidence over time.

Football & Fun is about more than scoring goals - it’s about belonging, building confidence, and discovering that being active can feel exciting, safe, and fun!
