We recognise that we have been operating with a waiting list for the last couple of seasons. Many kids just want to get out there and play football with friends and make some new ones. Rather than play the waiting game for a space in a team we really want to get those players active and enjoying the beautiful game!
We also recognise there are players and families that can’t fully commit to being part of a team and to travel around the local counties playing every weekend. We don’t want that to be a barrier to just getting out there and playing. Jumpers for goalposts and street football has somewhat disappeared in recent times. Those days of playing in mixed age group games out on the street offered so much - we aim to bring a bit of that back!

What?

Vale Juniors is delighted to announce the creation of a new football provision – Vale Juniors Kickabout.
Kickabout is a 1 hour weekly session that is available to school year 4, 5, and 6 that are not currently registered for a c lub or training with a team. If a player is also on our waiting list this wont be impacted and we aim to bring players from Kickabout in to our teams.
The session is designed to be accessible for all and as such is FREE thanks to our generous sponsor Lawson Motor Company! We would like to say a huge thank you to them! https://www.lawsonmotors.co.uk/

We intend to run the sessions as a pilot to gauge interest. As such we are committed to running an initial 6 sessions, with a view to then extending year round.

All sessions will be facilitated by a qualified coach. Sessions will take place 18:00 –19:00, Thursdays, at Eaton Bank Academy. Once registered you will be given joining instructions.
The first session will be Thursday 21st July.

Who is eligible?

Boys and girls
School years 4, 5 and 6 (roughly 9 - 12 year olds)
Players that are NOT attached to a club or currently training with a team

To register for the sessions please complete the form via this link, you will then be sent some joining details: Register Here!

Vale Juniors Kickabout is not an academy or a development centre, its not a place where ability is judged – it’s a place to enjoy football, make friends, have fun.
