Everything parents ask us

Tap any "Register for a free taster session" button and it opens WhatsApp with a pre-filled message. Add your child's name and date of birth, hit send, and we'll reply with their first session details. They just turn up and join in. No payment, no forms, no commitment. If they love it (they usually do), we'll sign them up afterwards.

Comfy sports clothes they can run in, trainers or astro boots (no metal studs), shin pads if they have them, and a water bottle. Nothing special is needed for a taster. Just bring them as they are.

Paid, qualified, DBS-checked professionals — never parent volunteers. We hire from the best football clubs in Manchester, because proper coaching at this age is what turns enthusiasm into real ability.

Of course. Parents are welcome pitchside at every training session and matchday. Plenty of our parents wouldn't miss it.

We're in Manchester, so we play through most weather! If a session ever has to be called off, we let parents know in the team WhatsApp group in good time.

Mostly, yes. Football runs all year, with at least one session a week through the summer, plus friendlies and a summer camp. There is no training in three school break weeks: the October half-term, Monday 26 October to Sunday 1 November 2026, when our holiday camp runs instead; the February half-term, Monday 15 to Sunday 21 February 2027; and the first week of the Easter holidays, Monday 5 to Sunday 11 April 2027. The club also closes for three weeks at Christmas, from Monday 14 December 2026 to Sunday 3 January 2027, and everyone is back the week of Monday 4 January.

When they join, the U8s and up get a zip-up training jacket, the full matchday kit — shirt, shorts and socks — and a branded water bottle, all your child's to keep. Our Minis get the full matchday kit. Any extra kit is sold at cost in the club shop; we're a non-profit and take nothing on it.

It goes by age: Minis for ages 4 to 6, then our U8s Hawks, U8s Ravens, U10s Eagles, U10s Lions and U11s. All our teams are professionally coached and treated as equals.

No. All abilities are welcome. Our coaches meet every child where they are and help them improve at their own pace. Attitude matters far more to us than ability.

Just message us on WhatsApp. We'll sign them up, sort their kit — the training jacket, full matchday kit and water bottle for the U8s and up, the matchday kit for our Minis — and register them to play. They'll have a team from that weekend.
