Teen Kick-off Program

Our Teen Kick-off Program is a 6-week soccer experience for teenage girls who don't currently play sport. This program is not about pressure or competition, just footballing fun!

Led by our experienced female coaches, participants will learn basic skills, make new friends, and build confidence in a welcoming space. Alongside the football, the Game Bloom Workshop opens up honest conversations about menstrual health, body changes, nutrition, and injury prevention. We are running the program in Term 4 2026 and Term 1 2027 - so keep an eye out for more information!
