Football Coaching Sessions for Kids at BYFL
See how we turn weekend practice into playground fun. Our sessions at the Padukone-Dravid Centre focus on building motor skills, coordination, and a love for the game in a pressure-free environment.
The excitement is real as our young players get into the action. This drill focuses on agility and teamwork, with kids learning to navigate the field together in a fun and competitive spirit.
One-on-one guidance is key to development. Here, a coach works closely with a player, demonstrating a technique during a practice session designed to improve ball control and dribbling skills.
The whistle blows and the fun begins. A young player starts a dribbling exercise, building confidence and control with every touch. Our sessions are filled with dynamic drills that feel like games.
Teamwork makes the dream work, even at a young age. Our players learn to communicate and move together on the pitch during a practice game, developing their understanding of space and positioning.
As the sun sets, the energy on the field stays high. Young players in bright green bibs participate in a small-sided game, a perfect way to apply the skills learned during our evening kids football practice.
Focus and determination on display. A young player wearing a green bib stands ready for the next play, learning the importance of positioning and awareness during a training game.

About this collection
When you see our groups on the turf, you won't see rigid drills. Instead, you'll see AFC-certified coaches working in small 1:10 ratios, turning agility exercises into games that keep kids moving. We specifically use the 'Kidothon' curriculum at the Padukone-Dravid Centre, which prioritizes color identification and basic coordination over intense competition, so your child builds confidence before they ever worry about scoring a goal.
How Our Weekend Sessions Work
Football at BYFL starts with smiles, not scoresheets. We run our toddler and youth programs every weekend at the Padukone-Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence in Yelahanka. Because we believe in a balanced approach, we structure our sessions to fit into your busy family schedule while ensuring the kids get the right level of engagement.
The 'Kidothon' Curriculum
For our youngest players, aged 3.5 and up, we avoid traditional drills. We use our 'Kidothon' approach, where games look like play but function as targeted skill development.
- Coordination & Balance: We use cones, bibs, and varied terrain to help kids learn how to move their bodies with a ball at their feet.
- Cognitive Drills: Simple tasks like color identification help keep young minds sharp and engaged during the 60-minute sessions.
- Small Groups: With a ratio of roughly 1:10, your child gets personal attention from our AFC-certified coaches, ensuring they never feel left behind.
Moving From Play to Performance
While our toddler program focuses on the basics, we provide a clear pathway for growth. As players develop, the curriculum evolves. We transition from fun-based play into technical skill acquisition and tactical awareness, preparing kids for the AIFF and KSFA leagues if they choose that path. Whether your child is just here to run around and make friends, or they have dreams of playing in a DPDL Super Cup, we have the coaching staff to support their journey. We are a family, and we grow together on and off the pitch.
BYFL
We are BYFL, and for over fifteen years, we have built a family around football. We believe every child who steps onto our turf is a champion, whether it is their first time touching a ball or they are preparing for a competitive league match.
