Early and foundation



We are keen to help absolute beginners taking their first steps into sport, right the way up to children who play at a high level. Our early years soccer club supports reception age children to learn basic skills. Foundation stage builds on those skills whilst promoting team work and sportsmanship.

Foundation Phase football

Football for boys and girls age 5 - 11

We believe that learning different football techniques is the key to mastering the game and thriving in a team environment. Our foundation teams receive weekly training sessions and can join local leagues to play 5 a side matches across the Leeds area and beyond.


The focus for foundation level football is to develop children's football skills while fostering teamwork and friendship. Our coaches - often parents volunteering - are there to ensure your child increases their overall confidence, develops key athletic skills and improves their social interaction; all whilst becoming better, more complete footballers.
