For boys and girls aged 5-11 years

An opportunity for your child to play small sided games through the ESFA club structure every weekend of the season.

The smaller fields, modified rules and fewer players mean a more enjoyable game with more opportunities to touch the ball and more opportunities to score goals. As your child progresses through the various age groups they will be introduced to playing environments that most suit their stage of development and prepare them for the transition to 11v11 football when the time comes.
