You've Been Talking

Some kind words

Although we don’t think it’s right and proper to use this page as a shameless opportunity to blow our own trumpet, if other people will insist on bombarding us with nice comments (which they have from day 1) it seems only right and proper to circulate their kind words to a wider yet equally appreciative audience.

On a slightly more serious note, aside from giving our team yet another good reason to glow with pride, we think honest third party anecdotal is the best way to reassure you that Little Kickers provides the perfect kick-start for any energy-packed pre-schooler.

"I  would like to say that I think the coaches are absolutely great; they throw themselves into things every week and are so good with all the boys. Myles completely loves them and Little Kickers. He will literally ask every day if it’s a football day – thank goodness for Fridays!!"
Little Kickers parent, Guildford

"My son attends the Twickenham sessions on a Sunday with Graham Ware.  I wanted to feedback to you what an excellent coach Graham is.  All of the children enjoy his sessions. I have been really impressed how he engages the children and has the most amazing running commentary throughout the sessions. It's really tough keeping a group of 2 year olds engaged but he manages with great ease. He is a real credit to the Little Kickers.  I wanted to write and provide positive feedback because frequently we are quick to complain and slow to compliment."
Caroline - Twickenham

"Scott and Nathan are unbelievably enthusiastic and this rubs off on the kids.  They are very inclusive of the kids and are good at spotting the ones who need that bit more encouragement.  It has really helped our son and I have no doubt about our baby son joining when he is old enough."
Claire - Ulverston

"LK is fantastic for providing fun, skill based exercise.  The children develop a number of skills and improve their fitness without realising, they just enjoy the games.  Keep up the fab work."
Libby

"My daughter just loves Little Kickers!  It's good fun, great exercise and teached her far more than football alone.  She made one of her best friends through Little Kickers."
Sarah - Penrith

"A big big thank you from Joshua to the coaches, Scott and Coby, for a fantastic introduction to football these past few years. Joshua has had a brilliant time.  Also a big thank you for his certificate and goal presented yesterday - very thoughtful of you. Am sure we will be back when Oliver is bigger.  Many thanks again.

"We joined Little Kickers after moving up to the Lake District from London. Josh has learnt not only simple footballing techniques but also about coordination, balance, teamwork, better listening skills, sharing and taking turns. He loves hanging out with the other children and being part of the Little Kickers team and is really proud of his little kit. As for me, I've also made some friends, which is a real bonus when you move to a new area and don't know anyone - so good news for children and good news for Mummies!"

"Little Kickers is a fun & exciting way for my little boy to start learning good co-ordination skills, becoming a team player and staying active.  The sessions are run in a fun & action packed way, pitched just at the right level for toddlers.  Some really good football skills are taught involving cones that suddenly become swamps & bridges with the added excitement of having to dodge space invaders!  The toddlers think it’s great fun & are totally in tune with the coaches & what they are expected to do.  All are kitted out in football strips which makes them feel part of a really terrific little team.  The sessions are obviously well planned & structured, ensuring each week a different skill is covered.  A really great activity and one we all look forward to every week!"
Emma  - Plymouth

"I would just like to share with you my thanks and admiration for little kickers and all the coaches. Ben really gets excited when we put on his 'Little kickers' kit, and head off to 'Hele School, Plympton' on Saturday mornings! Before we joined, Ben could kick the football, but now, he can do all sorts of things, from waking up his football and in and out of cones, to space invader games and penguin dribbling! he loves it! what surprises me most is that at just two yrs he can listen and take instruction, he's learnt his colours and can count beyond ten! Amazing! Coaches Kat, Karen and Sam have such energy and patients that keep the children engaged throughout the whole 45Min's. Fantastic! and lots of fun, thank you so much."
Sam Dobson ( Mum to Ben Dobson)

"Little Kickers at Plympton has definitely become the main event for our family on Saturday mornings!  Our daughter Erin was rather shy at first, but owing to the patience and expertise of the coaching staff, along with a bit of persistence on our part, she has really come out of her shell and thoroughly enjoys the sessions.  She loves learning new skills, and Little Kickers offers so much more than simply scoring goals!  It’s great exercise and a wonderful activity to be involved with.  We’d recommend it to any lively little girls or boys."
Erin’s Mum and Dad

"Little Kickers is Harry’s favourite 45 mins of the week, he wouldn’t miss it!!  Watching him and his little kicker friends learning to play football is also the highlight of my day!"
Dad, Wanstead

"I just wanted to write to say thank you for the wonderful time Sam has had at Little Kickers over the last year and a half. Little Kickers has given our son a real love of football and the confidence to play and understand it with his friends in the playground.  We were so sad to leave and Sam will miss his Sunday mornings there. I must make a special mention about the coaches.  Coach Serge and Coach Simeone... what amazing guys!  Their patience, care and interaction with the kids is unrivalled and has been extremely appreciated.  They clearly love what they do and ensure each child feels included and understands how to join in.  They have been so kind to Sam over his time there.  Please thank them for me. We look forward to coming to Little Kickers with our other son, Jamie... in another year! (let's hope he's walking before then!!). Thanks again.  It has really made a difference to Sam's confidence and understanding of how to play football."
Wendy, Mum to Sam Cohen, Golders Green.

"Also, may I just say that Ben is loving Littlekicks* and I really feel that he has learnt a few things over the last few weeks - he loves it and the other kids and parents are great too and of course Steve the Coach!"
Rebby, Little Kickers Romford & Ilford

"The highlight of my little boy's week is his Friday Little Kickers class. It's 45 minutes of football and much much more and he has a wonderful time.  The coaches are superb and are unbelievably patient with a dozen excited 2 year old boy's.  I can't recommend it highly enough"
A Happy Customer, in Families Surrey West Magazine, Jan 08.

"My son has played with Little Kickers for a couple of years and has enjoyed every minute. I throughly recommend it."
Mrs KP of the Mill Hill Class

"Just to say thank you for the great summer course run at St Michaels. Ben had a brilliant time. He's joined a 'big boy' football team... he's now with Byron Red Star at Raphaels' Park. His Little Kickers training has paid off, he was put with Year One boys (a year older), and he was totally at home, able to understand what was asked of him, and the skills and concentration he learnt at LK meant that the coach was very complimentary to us after his first session. Many thanks to Steve and Bonghani... they were both brilliant with the boys. I was totally amazed that anyone could get so many little boys to sit still whilst holding footballs! They are seem to totally hero-worship them, and now Ben wants a 'footballer hat' like Steve's!"
Sarah R

"I would also like to pass on to Rob and the other coaches at St Sebastians my thanks for what an amazing job they do. I have been a teacher all my life and am full of admiration for their skills in managing such young children. The course programme is fantastic in the way that the activities are presented. The short, clear, manageable and varied activies are perfect and the way that Rob interacts with the children is just great. My grandson is having a wonderful time at his football classes thanks to the expertise of the coaches."

"Families Thames Valley East July/August 2007. Parent2parent - favourite club or class; "Ben enjoys Little Kickers football class on Sunday mornings. Daddy takes him along each week. James goes to watch now too as he will be able to start playing when he's two. Great exercise, good fun and they love scoring goals!"
Sarah Turner of Windsor

"Luke had a great time at his first session and I was very impressed with the coaching and format of the session. The coaches made him feel very welcome and involved straight away. He can't wait for the next one to start. Please thank the coaches for a great time."
P Quinn

"A very Big Thank You for helping to secure Malachi a starting space at Little Kickers! He was a little bit shy on the day , but soon warmed up and enjoyed! Jamie and his co-worker was very good with the kids and patient too. Malachi last week has now independently joined the other children , without me holding his hands so he is becoming less shy now, and he's learning his colours, thanks to the classes!"

"Dan will be devastated to leave - he's adored Little Kickers."
Angie, mum of Dan, Watford

"My son, Harry, attended his first Little Kickers class at Wimbledon last Friday. I just wanted to say how impressed I was with it. Harry absolutely loved it and the two coaches were fantastic and really involved the two "new boys" straight away. I can see Harry being a Little Kicker for a long time!"
Jo C, Wimbledon

"Little Kickers is by far and away the best pre-school activity class we have ever tried - so well organised - thanks very much!"
Parent, Little Kickers Fulham

"We love the consistency of coaching at Little Kickers, and the early learning content. We are teachers ourselves and Little Kickers gets it so right for this age-group. We think the coaches are amazing - very positive role models for the children"
Parent, Little Kickers Putney

"Little Kickers is about so much more than football. Jamie loves the classes and talks about them throughout the week. He won't stop wearing his Little Kickers football shirt!"

"Both Rishul + Devin are having a great time at Little Kickers and the coaches are absolutely FAB.
All the best."
Kamlesh

"He really enjoyed it, and as we speak, is sleeping in his Little Kickers T-shirt, cos he refused to take it off! Thanks again."
Diana 

"Alex thoroughly enjoys Little Kickers - it's the only class he goes to which enables him to burn off so much of his excess energy!"
Natasha G, Barnes

"Little Kickers is absolutely fantastic! It's Benjamin's favourite activity of the week."
Parent, Little Kickers Reading

"Alfie started a little shaky and not wanting to join in as he had never been involved in something like this before, but gradually your excellent trainers (who are just great with the kids) have managed to get him involved and trying everything. This is what we both wanted him to do as it teaches him much needed social skills and how to join in and play. Thank you!"
Neil & Sam Weston, Essex 

"We are moving to Toronto, Canada during next month. Therefore we are very sad to say that we will not be renewing the membership for Jacob with the Junior Class of Little Kickers at Mill Hill. We have been delighted by the progress our son has made with all the coaches and will not hesitate to recommend Little Kickers to other parents in the future."
Steve Payne

"Many thanks, Hal is LOVING Little Kickers."
Emma Glover

"Unfortunately I have to give notice for lessons because we are moving back to the Netherlands. Leon will miss his classes dearly and, who knows, we may have contact in the future if there are no good toddler / under fives football options in Holland. Thanks for giving Leon the opportunity to practice his football skills and thanks for bringing a smile on my face every time the kids chase coach, it's the highlight of my week."
Marietta van der Putte 

"Scott absolutely loves Little Kickers. It is the highlight of his week! The coaches are excellent and it is very well run. Thanks!"
