Starting young is where the magic happens. We guide children as young as three through the basics, turning play into a lifelong love for the beautiful game.

We believe talent can be nurtured at any age. This video introduces one of our youngest players, three-year-old Hoorain, and showcases the fun, supportive environment we create for our beginner athletes.

Football is a family affair at our academy. We encourage parents to be part of their child's journey, like this moment captured of a father and his young son practicing basic ball control skills together.

Passion meets precision in our training sessions. Watch one of our young athletes master an agility ladder drill, building the fundamental footwork and coordination essential for advanced play.

About First Kicks: Nurturing Our Youngest Talent

We don't just put kids on a field and ask them to run. At this age, it is about 'play-based learning'—using fun, short drills to build coordination and confidence. Whether your child is 3 or 7, they learn how to control the ball, move with purpose, and most importantly, have a great time while doing it.
