Junior Football

Our football club welcomes boys and girls from P3 to P7, offering a fun and inclusive environment where everyone can participate, regardless of ability or experience. We focus on fair play, teamwork, and skill development while encouraging respect, self-discipline, and personal growth.

In P3, there is the option to  take part in Fun Fours (4v4) Centres at Forrester school where players get the chance to play a number of short matches against other schools each week.  

P4 to P7 teams take part in the Edinburgh Primary Schools Soccer 7’s programme, designed to help young players learn through small-sided games. Training takes place during the week, with friendly matches on Saturday mornings. These games focus on development, not competition, and are mixed-gender.

Parent volunteers are crucial to the club’s success. We welcome any help, whether as a coach or a helper regardless of experience. If you think you can offer some time, please contact the coordinator.

Our goal is to help kids improve their football skills, enjoy teamwork, and have fun!
