With the FIFA World Cup currently being the most talked about sporting event, you may have even been wondering about the sport yourself. Maybe you are questioning football lessons for your child. Especially if you are a parent and your child has been active in supporting the lions and showing their interest for the matches.
Or perhaps your children showed their enthusiasm way before the World Cup, playing in your garden, outside with friends, or at school with classmates.
For younger children, you may be wondering if football lessons are suitable for them, or what age is the most appropriate to sign them up. Any child can come and join the Kixx family. We provide training sessions for both boys and girls, starting from 18 months of age up to 10 years old.
Different ages have different suitability and knowing the most suitable training lessons for your children is important. That’s why all of our sessions are tailored specifically, developmentally structured and delivered age appropriately.
Kixx Football Lessons
Our children’s football lessons are divided into age groups with care to maximise learning, excitement, and growth for the children while maintaining a safe coaching environment.
Fostering the development of children is something we favour, and we strive to improve their lives on a daily basis.
The minds of children are constantly changing so to keep their attention, we find innovative coaching techniques that give the ‘wow’ factor, making football enjoyable for all.
Our Academy Model
We have carefully crafted curriculum for children as young as 18 months old and up to 10 years old, working with some of the UK’s top experts in coach education, player development, and child development.
We want football lessons to be suitable for everyone who wishes to join.
18 Months – 2 Years
Parent and toddles are the target audience for this Kixx programme.
Play is at the core of the curriculum, created by our Early Years Experts. This programme is designed to encourage the development of basic motions along with the improvement of gross motor abilities. All in a very enjoyable, secure setting.
2 Years
This Kixx session is a great way to get started with exercise. As a parent, you play an important role in the session because it is carefully conducted as a parent-toddler group. The coach-led entertaining programme follows a ‘theme of the day’ intended to be creative and fun. A session designed to both hold the interest of children and to capture their imagination, whilst developing balance, coordination, communication, and confidence.
These lessons lay a solid basis for the remainder of your child’s Kixx journey.
Ages 3 – 6
At this crucial developmental stage, Kixx employs the country’s national sport, football, to encourage physical exercise and healthy living choices.
Of course, skill development is highly valued but that’s not the only advantage of the Kixx programme. Our coaching tactics have a positive impact on children’s self-confidence as well as their motor, communication, and socialisation abilities.
The responsibility of Kixx is to guarantee that all children are having fun in a safe environment.
Whether children join Kixx at this stage, or are continuing to be with us, these programmes start to take on a different direction. Whereas earlier stages focus on developing motor ability, this stage focuses on developing both the person and the player aspects.
Years 6 – 10
Boys and girls of all abilities are welcome at any of our Kixx Academies, which are all focused on delivering our distinctive curriculum.
We take great satisfaction in establishing a vibrant learning environment, and our guiding principle is that every child should feel at ease handling a ball. This ensures that there won’t be any lines or queues at our Kixx Academies.
We support player-led exploration but we always want the children to be happy and engaged at our sessions.
