What your child will learn and develop in our weekly development programme

Our sessions are age appropriate and cater for mixed experiences and abilities, because we recognise that all children are different and have varying needs.

However, see below a breakdown of generally how the learning for each age group will differ as they move through the F2M phases of learning.

Want your child to try out our sessions in a FREE no obligation trial session? No problem, just click here and book yourself into one of our upcoming Saturday sessions.

Join the Football 2 Music journey and let us become your child’s favourite activity of the week for years to come.

Saturday mornings at Woburn Sands Sports Hall

We will be delivering our programme every Saturday morning from the Woburn Sands Sports Hall, Summerlin Drive, Woburn Sands, Milton Keynes, MK17 8GN between 9:20am - 12:40pm.

9:20am to 10:20am - 3 to 4 years - Introduction Phase 1

In phase 1 of the Football 2 Music journey, children will explore and practice using a football independently, perhaps for the first time. We combine upbeat and energetic music with themed football activities that will really engage your little ones. Each child will have lots of individual time and contact with the football, which will allow them to develop their ABC's (Agility, Balance, Coordination and Speed) and fine motor skills, as well as demonstrate and progress their listening, understanding and communication skills. We also encourage creativity, which can sometimes demonstrate itself in the form of dancing as well as football. P.S. Listen out for a children's classic song each session that will really excite them.

10:30am to 11:30am - 5 to 7 years - Foundation Phase 2

For phase 2 of the Football 2 Music journey, children will be introduced to football related topics and techniques. We combine upbeat and energetic music with themed football activities and small-sided matches, creating an environment to really engage your children and allowing them to burn some energy. Each child will have lots of contact with the ball and active movement time, giving each individual child lots of opportunities to practice and develop their football skills, catering for all different experiences and abilities. They will also improve their ABC's (Agility, Balance, Coordination and Speed) and fine motor skills, whilst demonstrating and progressing their listening, understanding and communication skills within a fun and friendly environment. We encourage creativity, which can vary from trying a new skill to dancing to the music and celebrating a goal.

11:40am to 12:40pm - 8 to 10 years - Development Phase 3 (from January 2025)

Phase 3 of the Football 2 Music journey is where your children will practice and develop their technique and understanding of football related topics. We combine upbeat and energetic music with themed football activities and small-sided matches, creating an environment to really engage your young football enthusiasts and helping them to burn some energy. Each child will have lots of contact with the ball and active movement time, giving each individual child lots of opportunities to practice and develop their football skills, catering for all different experiences and abilities. They will also further improve their ABC's (Agility, Balance, Coordination and Speed) and fine motor skills, whilst demonstrating and progressing their listening and communication skills within a fun and friendly environment. We encourage creativity, which can vary from trying a new skill to dancing to the music and celebrating a goal.
