Football is an activity that children of all ages can enjoy. At Kixx, we coach children from 18 months old. Before joining #TeamOrange, many people ask us – ‘what happens in our football lessons for 2 year olds?’ This blog post aims to provide the answers!
If you are wondering whether a football academy for kids is the right place for your 2 year old child – look no further!
The Benefits Of Football Lessons For 2 Year Olds
Introducing your toddler to football can have so many benefits for their development.
By the age of 2, toddlers have reached many milestones, such as talking, walking, climbing, jumping and running. We provide an environment for our children to safely, test their own boundaries, learn new skills and make friends along the way.
Football coaching for toddlers can encourage the development of:
- Movement
- Communication
- Imagination
- Observation
- Teamwork
When a child is happily engaged in an activity, it truly is amazing how many skills are continually developed both physical and mental!
Kixx Football Lessons For 2 Year Olds
Joining a football academy at such a young age can of course bring so many benefits for children, not to mention, offer a great introduction to the sport.
Many children still very much need or want their ‘grownup’ by their side when starting a new activity at such a young age, which is why we run our 18 month and 2 year football lessons as parent toddler groups – meaning our parents can often play a crucial role in the session, supporting their child in the activities, which can really help assist development and more importantly, have heaps of fun together as a family!
Our football lessons for toddlers are lead by qualified, passionate and caring coaches, and all sessions are delivered age appropriate. This keeps our children engaged, learning and encourages our children to be creative and use imagination.
Our Kixx sessions provide a brilliant foundation for the rest of a child’s footballing journey.
Kixx football lessons, for young children especially, are so much more than football.
Football lessons tailored for 2 year olds at #TeamOrange are designed to help children develop motor skills, coordination, communication and mobility. Kixx not only helps our 2 year old learn the very basics of football, but also improve in areas like colour recognition and numbers.
The most important element of our 2 year old football sessions is that children are engaged, learning and most importantly, having lots of fun!
Many children become part of the Kixx family having never touched a football before and this is the same for all our age groups, and not just our youngest. We want our youngest football superstars to leave Kixx football lessons having experienced an adventure through play – as well as having developed some of the basic skills in football.

“The work done by all Kixx coaches is amazing, they never make one session the same and that’s why we love it so much. It’s helped amazingly boost my children’s social skills and taught them so much. Kixx is an amazing family to be part of. “ – Kixx Parent
The parents and grownups in our Kixx family love the positive environment of our football lessons and the impact it has on their young superstars.
Having our grownups working together with their loved ones really helps instil confidence, proudly enjoying the journey of growth as a family and we believe it provides a wonderful environment for bringing the family closer together.
