FootieBugs, through its children’s football based activity programmes promotes individuality and encourages this by building confidence and self assurance.

All FootieBugs children’s football sessions are conscientiously woven into an ever evolving programme that places as much emphasis on concepts like learning colours and developing number skills as on fine-tuning a child’s basic balance, agility and co-ordination skills.
All FootieBugs programmes are taught in a positive, pressure-free environment which encourages children to learn and develop at their own pace.
FootieBugs prides itself on being able to do more than help produce the next David Beckham, more than just teach children the core skills to be a good footballer; it prides itself in working in partnership with the whole family. We believe in offering all of our knowledge and expertise that extends the football field by providing invaluable health and fitness guides and nutritional booklets, which parents/carers find particularly useful.
Future stars
Although we can’t guarantee that every FootieBug will end up playing in the premiership, we can certainly promise to point them in the right direction. Given our close relationships with all the top premiership clubs we can ensure that once your child starts showing real potential it’s only a matter of time before they are noticed by the big clubs. FootieBugs is only the beginning.
To ensure parents are aware of their child’s progress, we run a level system whereby children develop essential football skills and work their way through the levels.
