School Holiday Football Clinics

Football South Australia is thrilled to announce the relaunch of its flagship school holiday football program under a vibrant new brand: Kickstart. Designed as an entry-level football experience for children new to the game, Kickstart will roll out across the state during school holidays and at selected times throughout the year, offering a consistent, fun, and engaging introduction to football. Kickstart is tailored for young children, focusing on basic skill development, game awareness, and creating a positive first experience in football. The program’s vibrant identity reflects its emphasis on fun, inclusion, and community connection, with a goal of inspiring a lifelong love of the game.

Football South Australia is excited to introduce Game Ready, a brand-new school holiday football program designed for children ready to take the next step in their football journey. Building on the foundations of KickStart, Game Ready focuses on skill refinement, game awareness, and structured football activities that challenge players while keeping the fun at the heart of every session. Participants will sharpen their technique, develop teamwork, and experience game-like scenarios that prepare them for the demands of match play. Running during school holidays, Game Ready provides a consistent pathway for young footballers who are eager to grow their abilities in an engaging, supportive, and inclusive environment. With its focus on player development through game-related learning, Game Ready helps bridge the gap between introductory football and long-term participation in the world game.
