Miniroos - Club Football (U6 & U7)
Taringa Rovers Soccer FC
Miniroos are oriented to develop a consistent level of both footballing skill and
athletic ability, through a weekly basic development level circuit program as well as a game-based exercise, and to
provide future players with fundamental skills and co-ordination required to
participate in small sided football.
Young players are able to begin being introduced to playing football in a team environment at a familiar location amongst the safety of friends and family.
To ensure children are able to achieve the best progression, the program has been developed to:
- Continue to increase exposure to the game for young children; and
- Provide parents and future coaches with the appropriate skillset to develop young players.
Sessions are 90 mins long and are held weekly on a Saturday morning (excluding school holidays and public holidays).
Parents will be asked to volunteer as team coach where they will be instructed, supervised & mentored by the Club Technical Director of Coaching - Juniors. The Technical Director will decide what skills & drills are to be done each session and explain to the Coaches how each skill or drill is to be undertaken. They also provide instruction & direction while the skill or drill is being executed. After the skills session, the Parent Coaches will be expected to referee the in-house small-sided game.
This unique in-house U6 & U7 program was introduced at Taringa in 2012 and has been very successful in providing consistent skill development to those young players starting out at football. It has also been successful in providing an excellent environment for any parents who may be interested in becoming a coach to learn the ropes in a supported & controlled way. Many of the parents who started out helping their child’s team in U6 & U7 have gone on to coach their children’s teams in the older age groups & have reaped the benefit of being part of the club community & involved in their child’s football.
