What our parents say

Darren Miller
From the moment our little one went to the class the instructors have been friendly, approachable and passionate about what they do. Another great point is they always remember the kids names despite the amount of kids they must work with.
Sarah Amanuel
My experience with Soccer Stars have been nothing but amazing. I have seen improvements in my son's confidence, the coaches have been brilliant in involving and motivating my son. Thank you very much.
Jane Barlow
My son has recently started at soccer stars academy and absolutely adores it. Only in the short time attending he’s gained so much confidence and really enjoys going. His coaches are great and make myself, my partner and son feel very comfortable from when we arrive. Classes are also great, plenty to do in the 45minutes and not forceful too. Really recommend sending your child here!
Jennifer Brown
My little boy Shay loves going to his football class on a Saturday, it’s the highlight of his week. He hasn’t only grown confidence in football but within his self too. The coaches are great with the kids and make the classes so much fun. Keep up the good work.
Mary McFarlane
My 4 year old son (soon to be 5) loves this class. This was his first introduction to a football class, and he is loving it. We have seen such a positive change in him in a matter of weeks (practicing new skills at home, better discipline in terms of listening and more controlled tackling). Matthew & Jordan are great with the kids, and are great at getting the kids to pay attention.
Kym Graham
My son started 3 weeks ago and has absolutely loved every minute he always leaves in such a great mood after. coaches are amazing and have great patience for getting young children to focus on instructions . definitely a great place for kids to have fun ,make friends and learn new skills.
