SOCCER BAMBINI
Where the fun begins!
Balcatta FCs Soccer Bambini program for 3-5 year old's is designed to introduce young footballers to their football journey in a fun and exciting playing environment with a focus on learning football by playing football.
The program is run by qualified coaches and volunteers from our Women's Squad on Saturday mornings and helps build football basics and foundation skills including: first touch, 1v1, running with the ball and striking the ball. Sessions are designed to take our youngsters on their football journey by playing enjoyable games. The games are fun based, while teaching children the essentials of football, and simultaneously they improve balance and agility. At the same time they learn essential life skills of socialising with other children, respect for coaches, discipline, awareness and most of all enjoyment, in a positive pressure free environment.
