FOR CHILDREN TURNING 4, 5 OR 6 THIS YEAR
STARTED - FRIDAY 3RD MAY 2024
🟩 WHAT
These sessions are aimed at 4 - 6 year olds with or without any previous experience kicking a ball. Early engagement for players as young as 4 years old into the game helps allow the children an opportunity to discover the game and provide for learning basic fundamental movement skills and create positive football experiences.
🟩 WHEN
Commences on Friday 3rd May 2024.
Fridays between 5:00pm and 6:30pm behind the Marist Clubrooms, 19 Pascal St, Palmerston North.
* 5:10pm – Muster and assignment of grid groups at the Marist Clubrooms
* 5:20pmto 6:20pm – training in grids
* 6:20pm – Re-group for certificates and club notices.
🟩 WHATS NEEDED
We expect all children to arrive in white shorts, Marist green socks, and shin pads, and it would be great if they have boots but sneakers are fine.
🟩WHO
Volunteers from the club or friends of the club who will be overseen by the coordinator from the Marist Junior Football Club. Parents will be encouraged to support the coach and their child when and where possible throughout the season.
🟩WHAT'S NEW
Girls and boys will be separated in an effort to get more girls playing football, and to assist in them having more touches on the ball every session. We need the numbers in order for this to work, so bring a friend.
🟩HOW DOES IT WORK
Children are divided into teams, Depending on numbers 3 or 4 periods of 8 minutes each, of grid play will take place. The children rotate around the different squares with a "Game Leader" in each square for a different football-related activity in each. After this, the children have a team vs team game of football. Parents will be encouraged to support their children during these exercises in a positive manner.
