Motspur Park FC ‘Wildcats’

HAVE FUN, MAKE FRIENDS, AND PLAY FOOTBALL

Wildcats football is an FA programme across the England to offer girls aged 5-11 a chance to try football for the first time and provide regular opportunities to play.

Motspur Park FC’s Wildcats is aimed at players currently in school year 1-3 (and reception pupils born early in the school year) regardless of their footballing ability. These sessions focus on improving the players Agility, Balance, Coordination, and Speed by primarily working on close ball control entwined with fun, small competitions and games. We believe that every child should have a ball at their feet for at least 70% of the time. This soccer school greatly enhances the players close control and range of ball skills. As well as improving players technical and physical aspects of the game we press great emphasise on the social and fun side of football through the utilisation of fun themed activities.

For the older players our Wildcats sessions are designed to prepare players for joining our U9 team in the subsequent season.

“A brilliant introduction to a team activity for my two girls (aged 5 & 7 when they started a year ago). Well organised with great activities and drills with and without the ball. They started as absolute football novices but thanks to the team of coaches they’re improving in the games they play and are pushing to practice away from the sessions!”
