COMMUNITY FEEDBACK
''Brandon and the team have done a great job. We really see the progress and boost to her confidence that Kaylani displays in the Saturday matches''. Kayla Freedman
"Dylan and Brandon have been really good, they are patient and encouraging with the boys. They have some good drills which they modify into into car wash, horses, race track which gets the kids interested. 👍". Joey Jannaway
"My two boys have each been attending (and loving) Kickeroos since they were toddlers. They have now both progressed on to the development squad which is further developing their knowledge of, and love for, the game whilst continuing to instil in them team work and good sportsmanship. The fact the owner is a teacher is evident throughout the program - the kids are learning great life skills (sharing, waiting their turn, listening and good sportsmanship to name just a few) while having fun and making new friends.
I can’t recommend Kickeroos highly enough!" - Corrina Gadd
"Fantastic programme for toddlers and young kids - very thoughtful and age appropriate activities with engaging and dedicated coaches who build great rapport with the kids. My son runs to the class each week so excited to be there” – Victoria Wark, Edward’s Mum.
"Our weekly soccer session has become the highlight of our week. The coaches make it fun and entertaining for the children (and therefore also very entertaining for the parents). I love that the training is held outdoors in beautiful Centennial Park. The timetable offers many options and parking is easy. A+++" - Hannah Duke
"Our toddler just started Kickeroos and absolutely loves it. The coaches are friendly and great with littles and it's an amazing way for them to develop skills and burn off energy. Highly recommend." - Megan Ashley
"My daughter just loved SheKicks today! So gorgeous to see her happy and proud little face afterwards :))). We're off to get shin pads and boots now. You're a very good coach (Coach Nick) - without being a preacher ;). Just so good. My daughter loves soccer." - Rose Macken
"My son absolutely loves Kickeroos, the coaches are friendly and are great at teaching skills while keeping it fun. We look forward to seeing you every week!." - Ciaran Sheridan
"Our six year old daughter was very scared to start soccer and was anxious about starting to play a sport. When I piked her up she was so excited to tell me about her day and the next morning she couldn't get to the holiday camp fast enough. Thank you and your team for introducing our little one to sport in such a positive and well organised program! We are looking forward to starting the term program!" - Andrew Beban
