READY FOR 4s

Introducing Our Youngest Players to the World of Football

Designed for ages 4 to 6, the Ready for 4s programme is all about helping our youngest players take their first steps into organised football. These sessions focus on:

  • Balance and Coordination: Building essential motor skills to set the foundation for football development.

  • Ball Carrying and Decision-Making: Introducing players to basic techniques and on-the-pitch decision-making.

  • Small-Sided Games: A fun, rotational setup including 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, and 4v4 matches to develop spatial awareness and teamwork.


We believe the first experience of football should be fun, engaging, and full of learning opportunities. Our coaching team focuses on guiding players through structured activities and stepping back to let them explore the game independently.
