Saturday Foundation mixed 4-6yrs

Welcome to Appleton AFC Saturday Foundation! For over 50 years, we’ve been introducing boys and girls aged 4-6 to the beautiful game of football. Our Foundationy isn’t just about teaching the basics of football; it’s about creating a positive and enjoyable environment where every child can develop a lifelong love for the sport.

With dedicated coaches and a tailored approach, we ensure that each child’s first steps onto the pitch are filled with fun and excitement. We understand the importance of this introduction to football, which is why we focus on building not only their skills but also their fitness, confidence, discipline, and respect for the game.

Every week, we welcome over 100 enthusiastic young players, eager to learn and grow. Our Foundation caters to Reception and Year One age groups. This allows them to progress seamlessly into league matches, starting at Year Two – Under 7s for the boys and Year Three – Under 8s for the girls.

At Appleton AFC Foundation, it’s not just about winning matches; it’s about fostering a love for the game and instilling values that go beyond the pitch. Join us on this exciting journey, where every child is encouraged to thrive and succeed, both on and off the field. Let’s kick off a lifetime of football memories together!
