About this collection
We keep our coach-to-player ratio at 1:12 to ensure every child gets the attention they need during our 60 to 75 minute sessions. Our program blends technical ball drills with agility work, ensuring kids stay engaged and have fun while building the coordination required for long-term development.
Building the Foundation
At SG5, we believe football is a language kids learn best when they are having fun. Our Grassroots Program is designed for children aged 4 to 11, focusing on the basics of ball mastery, first touch, and coordination. We do not just teach kids how to kick a ball; we help them develop the confidence to express themselves on the pitch.
What to Expect
Every session is structured to be high-energy and productive. We start with warm-ups focused on balance and agility using cones and ladders, followed by technical drills that help with dribbling and passing. The latter part of the session is dedicated to small-sided games, where kids get maximum touches on the ball in a pressure-free environment.
Program Logistics
- Frequency: 2 sessions per week (Mon/Thu or Tue/Fri batches available).
- Locations: We operate across key Mumbai localities including Powai, Goregaon (East and West), Mira Road, Borivali, and Kandivali.
- Coaching: All sessions are led by our trained team, ensuring a safe environment for your little striker.
- Gear: Enrollment includes our official dry-fit jersey and kit so every player feels part of the pride from day one.
Whether your child is taking their very first steps on a pitch or has been kicking a ball around the living room, our environment is built to help them grow. We celebrate the small wins, like a perfectly executed pass or a boost in confidence, just as much as we celebrate tournament trophies. We are not just training players; we are helping them start a lifelong relationship with the game.
SG5 Football Academy
We started SG5 to give Mumbai’s kids a real shot at loving the game, not just playing it. My team and I see every player who steps onto the turf as part of our pride, whether they are taking their first steps on a pitch or already dreaming of the pros.
