Our well established Little Lions sessions changed philosophy to adopt the FA's play phase thinking.
The Little lions session is now in it's 8th year and has brought through 18 teams.. next year's u7's coach, Phil King, is already in place and raring to go!
John attended an FA roll out event on Wednesday "8th Feb hosted in Peterlee by Durham FA.
The new thinking/rationale/Philosophy was explained by Pete Sturgess and hit a chord with John.
Martin and John were already looking for new ideas to improve their sessions to improve the development of their Little Lions. The timing was perfect. John came back enthused, completed the play phase course and on Saturday 2nd March explained the change of sessions to the parents...... then off they went.
The sessions will develop as they explore the paths the kids take but the coaches will guide and support the kids and support their learning.
The play phase is based on movement , self development and developing a healthy attitude to sport, any sport. Billingham Juniors are fully onboard with this new direction and look forward to our expressive confident new players joining the club... OR going to another sport and being happy and active!
Our sessions are 9-10 at Northfield school main hall, the first session is free then pay as you play (£3.50) Message our Little Lions Facebook page OR just turn up!
