From the very beginning, Kixx has been driven by one simple idea: football can change children’s lives. Over the years, our mission has grown with us. We started with a promise to impact every child at every opportunity. That passion has evolved into a clear, bold goal: to positively impact 100,000 children every single week through football. It isn’t a complete change. It’s the natural next step in a journey we’ve been committed to from day one, and we’d love your child to be part of it through Kixx children’s football.
What Parents Really Care About (and How Kixx Helps)
When parents talk to us about choosing activities, they rarely start with football skills. They start with feelings:
“I want my child to feel confident.”
“My child needs space to make friends.”
“A stressful or overly serious environment won’t suit them.”
“Coaches who understand children make all the difference.”
“And we want something our child genuinely looks forward to.”
A Kixx football academy is built around those needs. Football is the tool. Confidence, joy, development, and belonging are the real outcomes.
The Kixx Experience: More Than Just a Football Class
When your child steps into a Kixx session, they’re not just joining a football activity; they’re joining a community. Parents consistently tell us they notice a warm welcome, coaches who truly care, sessions that feel fun and adventurous, and an environment where children feel they belong. Our coaches design our approach carefully so every child, regardless of experience or confidence level, feels included and supported.
The ORANGE Way – How Children Learn at Kixx
Behind the fun sits our simple, child-friendly coaching framework: the ORANGE way of learning. It helps children learn football while also building essential life skills.
OWN THE BALL: This stage helps children of all abilities develop confidence and control. Through simple, purposeful activities, they gain the freedom to explore and improve their touch at their own pace.
RUN WITH THE BALL: Fun, imaginative challenges help children develop movement skills such as balance, agility and coordination. These activities support both early learners and children who are ready to refine their technique.
ATTACK: Children learn to be brave and creative in attack. They explore when to pass, dribble or shoot and grow their confidence in making decisions on the ball.
NO WAY PAST
Children work together to defend with purpose. They communicate, position themselves and support one another to protect space and build teamwork.
GOALS, GOALS, GOALS
We celebrate progress in many forms: football goals, personal achievements, kindness and effort. Every child, regardless of ability, experiences moments that make them feel proud.
EARN IT BACK
When things don’t go to plan, children learn how to respond positively. This approach strengthens children’s resilience and determination, supporting both beginners and more advanced players as they learn to try again with confidence.
Keeping It Fresh – How We Evolve for Your Child
One of the biggest concerns parents share is whether their child will get bored. That’s why the Kixx football curriculum is constantly evolving. Our sessions feature regularly refreshed themes, challenges, and activities to ensure they stay exciting and meaningful.
We also invest continuously in our coaches. Their ongoing training helps them understand children better, deliver sessions with energy and care, and bring new ideas to every experience. When coaches grow, children feel the benefit every week.
Growing Into New Local Communities
Our mission to impact 100,000 children each week means reaching more families and more locations across the UK. Kixx is expanding into new communities, creating more opportunities for children to experience confidence-building football. If we’re not in your area yet, it may not be long before a Kixx academy appears closer to home.
Why Families Choose Kixx in 2026
Parents choose Kixx because their children come home smiling, because their confidence grows week by week, because they feel safe and included, and because our approach offers real development without pressure. Families stay because Kixx stands for more than football. It stands for values, care, and genuine impact.
