We enrolled our boys aged 6 and 4 in the two-day Jungle Sports program at Lords in Subiaco with Andy and Luke – the kids are still talking about it. The program was just fantastic; the boys learned new skills, ran for almost two hours and had a generally excellent time!
This will be an excellent introduction for young children to experience sports with their parents. The program is tailored to a young child’s needs and is purely about having fun and developing fundamental co-ordination and ball skills.
Soccer – 3-4 year olds
Lords, Sat & Sun
Samson, Sat
The sessions are an excellent way for the children to have endless fun in a structured indoor environment, and the best part is that mums and dads can join in too!
Each session is broken up into 2 fun drills followed by a skill related fun game at the end. Dynamic warm ups, dribbling, passing, shooting, first touch control, agility movements, goalkeeping, heading, juggling tricks, silky skills and defending.

The Jungle ZONE is a program put together especially for those older children (6-8 years) who want to take a slightly more ’serious’ approach to soccer training.
Held at various locations in Cottesloe, Subiaco, Samson and City Beach
Mixed Age groups:
Littlies 3-4 year olds
Middlies 5-7 year olds
Biggies 8-10 year olds
Our programs have been designed for children aged from 3 to 10 years of age and are designed to not only teach the children the art of the World game in a not so competitive fun environment but also to increase their hand eye and gross motor skills along with raising self esteem and self confidence. At the end of each term I will be presenting gifts to the children in recognition of their achievements because I consider all the children to be winners. Learn the basic skills required to play the ‘World Game’. Learn in a non competitive, fun environment.
