MiniRoos/Parent Coach

You don't have to be a football expert to coach MiniRoos.

Unfortunately many boys and girls miss out on sporting programs due to a lack of volunteer coaches. You have the power to change this and we have the tools to help you put smiles on many little faces.

The Grassroots Coaching Course is the ideal introduction to coaching MiniRoos.

This is a FREE course for coaches training 5-9 year old players.

The 3 hour course is practical and encourages the coaches to develop practices based on FUN.

The emphasis is on natural development i.e. learning by PLAYING football. Less coaching, but more organising FUN football exercises is the key to helping players build a love for the game.

Another highlight of the course is that the coaches are exposed to basic rules of the game as well as tips on how to build a football culture in an entirely practical setting.

So whether you are new to the game or have played previously, the Grassroots Coaching Course is great place to start. Grassroots coaches will receive a FREE Football for Kids handbook.

Grassroots courses are conveniently located at many local football clubs across the country.
