If any proof were needed of Burnage’s links to the footballing world it would only require a look at the past register of the local high school and grammar.
Past pupils include England international Wes Brown and Roger Byrne, the captain of Manchester United’s Busby Babes.
There should be no surprise then, that football is a passion for many of the young people in the area, spurred on by the achievements of past and present footballing stars. And they now have the opportunity to hone their own soccer skills at our Mini Soccer sessions held at Burnage Academy.
Mini Soccer sessions in Burnage offers youngsters the opportunity to join with a group of like-minded youngsters and an experienced and qualified coaching team to learn more about the great game and practice their newly-found skills. These schools are not academic sessions; they are firmly centred on on-the-ball action but the benefits gained by the youngsters who take part in kid’s Mini Soccer football sessions in Manchester can extend far beyond the football pitch. Parents may notice a boost in their child’s confidence, better attention levels and an improved ability to work as a team and communicate with their peers. In addition, Mini Soccer in Burnage is a great way to keep youngsters active and healthy, especially since each and every child will be ‘on-the-ball’ for almost all of each session.
The weekly sessions are designed for five to 12-year-olds and are suitable for both boys and girls and for youngsters of all footballing abilities. The sessions, which generally last up to two hours, are specifically tailored to meet the needs of this age group and children are also split into even smaller ‘teams’ to make for an even more personalised and enjoyable experience.
Each of our sessions start and finish with mini games that are similar to those in association football but are played on smaller pitches and with smaller teams. This ensures that each child sees as much action as possible and can learn about all aspects of the game rather than being restricted to just one position. In between these games, the sessions are packed with drills, training and games to improve skills and, most importantly, to ensure the children are having fun. All of the activities are overseen by a fully-qualified FA coaching team with vast experience of working with children of all ages, personalities and abilities.
The Mini Soccer football sessions in Manchester offer many benefits that will appeal to different types of children and their families; from bringing shy children out of their shells to channelling enthusiasm in the right direction.
