First Kicks is the environment in which children now first encounter organised football. It has been designed to be a fun, engaging, and enjoyable way to spend a Saturday morning, with activities put together to improve teamwork, skills, and enjoyment of the game.
First Kicks is organised into pods of four teams, with each coordinator facilitating a single activity in each pod and the players cycling through each activity. These activities focus on developing physical literacy, and setting players up for future footballing success. After completing each activity, the teams play three 10 minute small-sided games.
Our First Kicks Coordinator is yet to be determined for this season, but any questions you have can be directed to our Junior Club Captain Andrew Turner at juniors@takaroafc.org.nz
