⚽️💙 BIG SMILES, little kicks and lots of Tots Football Fun was all part of another fantastic weekend in Didsbury and Sale!

Our little ones absolutely love getting stuck in — kicking the ball, running around, playing fun games, making friends and, most importantly, having a brilliant time!

There’s nothing better than seeing their confidence grow while they have so much fun along the way.

Honestly… I wish sessions like these had been around when I was a kid!

Here’s to more football, more smiles and more happy little footballers!

👊⚽️ WE’RE BACK AND READY TO GO!

It’s a brand-new term for our superstars, and we’ve also got a brand-new focus at FFF!

Throughout September, we’ll be focusing on RESPONSIBILITY and talking about what it means both on and off the football pitch.

On the pitch, responsibility means:

* Playing fairly
* Listening to the coach
* Working together
* Respecting each other
* Always doing your best

But responsibility doesn’t stop when the football does! Away from football, responsibility can mean:

* Listening to parents, teachers and other adults
* Helping at home and tidying up after themselves
* Looking after their belongings
* Being kind, honest and respectful
* Taking responsibility when they make a mistake
* Completing schoolwork and other tasks
* Keeping themselves and others safe

Through football, we want to help our little ones grow into confident, capable and responsible young people — learning valuable life skills that go far beyond the pitch.

Let’s make this September a month of learning, growing and taking responsibility!

Who’s ready for a fantastic new term?

⚽ THIS IS MORE than a penalty shootout.

Every child attending our Football Fun Camp tomorrow will get the chance to test their shooting skills in our giant goal. But every penalty also helps shine a light on an incredible charity.

We're proud to be supporting MAMA Academy, helping raise awareness and funds for their life- saving work supporting safer pregnancies.

If you'd like to support the campaign, you can donate here:

This summer, Football Fun Factory children across the UK are coming together to help save babies’ lives through the MAMA Academy Penalty Shootout Challenge — and we’d love your family to be part of it.

🌟🟦 A huge well done to Adam, Ella and Louis, our well-deserved Shiny Blue Card Winners during Summer Camp!

Throughout the camp, they have consistently displayed a fantastic attitude, role-modelled brilliant behaviours and been a real inspiration to the hundreds of children who have attended.

They’ve shown what it means to be true role models and absolute superstars!

Well done, Adam, Ella and Louis — you should be incredibly proud!

💙🌟 THE SHINY BLUE CARD

During our camps, we talk with the children about behaviours, our values and how they can demonstrate them throughout the day. Each day, we reward those who show fantastic behaviour with a Blue Card.

Then we have our Shiny Blue Card — awarded to the superstars who have consistently demonstrated our values across the whole week.

Last week, two children really stood out. We saw so many brilliant examples of positive behaviour, from listening carefully to the coaches and helping other children, to encouraging teammates and holding doors open for others.

Louis and Ella, you were both absolutely brilliant and consistently demonstrated fantastic behaviour throughout the week. You were positive role models and showed our values day after day.

Well done, Louis and Ella — you both thoroughly deserve your Shiny Blue Cards!
