KIDS as young as 18 months are being accepted into Kilwinning Football Academy’s Mini Kickers.

The sessions cost just £2.50 each and take place every Saturday morning from 10- 10.45am in Kilwinning Academy.

Being indoors ensures that the classes are always on in spite of weather conditions.

Mini Kickers sessions introduce basic football techniques, such as dribbling, passing and shooting. They also serve to develop children’s motor and social skills.

The fun classes are tailored specifically to the needs of children between two- fiveyears and it’s the perfect way to ignite an enthusiasm for sport that will stay with them for life.

The academy always asks for parent participation and support to enhance the wee ones’ experience.

Classes consist of an enthusiastic coach inviting parents and children to join forces for a first foray into all things football - nothing too clever just full-on footy fun.

Classes take place throughout the year so there are no specified start and end dates.

Enrolment will start on the child’s first day of classes. For more information, visit https://www. facebook.com/KilwinningFA/.
