Football clubs for 6 year olds - Southend area

[Jam_Man]

My lad and his friend are 6 and have shown interest in trying a football club/soccer school.

My son has never played any football and will no doubt be rubbish at first, but Id like him to at least have ago.

Anyone know of any decent soccer schools that are friendly to 6 year olds just starting out?

Southend Manor, Leigh Ramblers and Catholic United are your best bet. Leigh Ramblers is usually Saturday mornings at around 9am over at Belfairs Recreation Ground.

Southend Manor are good over at Southchurch Park around 9am on a Saturday, Smiffy will be able to put you in touch with the right people.

My lad is 9 & he attends a Saturday Morning session with Ekco Whitecaps @ the Ekco gound -This week it's at 10.30 - There is a younger group of Girls & Boys that also train that would probably be ok for your lad as they are of mixed ability.
They are having a free family fun day next week (28th July) - 12.00 - 4pm which has some free sessions & competitions - also at the Ekco Ground.
There are also bouncy castles, BBQ etc - the non footballing stuff is not free.

My lad started going a year ago after never having played before & has improved a lot - so much so that he is signing up to play in the "proper" team next season.

THanks for feedback.

He hasnt ever played, doubt they have done anything at school either.

Want to get him into it and just looking for a friendly little club for him and his friend to have a go at. Forgot Smiffy was involved at Southend Manor, that sounds do-able.

If its a team you are looking for then Southend Manor certainly ideal, if you want to send the kids to a soccer school during the holidays for a bit of experience then try the Commuity & Educational Trust's - they welcome all abilities and sessions are all fun-based.
