Ladybirds

Adelaide United Ladybirds is a football program providing an introduction to the game for girls in primary school (5-9 years old).

Ladybirds provides a fun, friendly environment in which to learn and develop basic football skills. Ladybirds consists of a half hour skills session and half hour of games. Games are played on modified fields with five participants on each team.

Ladybirds is structured around providing a positive introduction to football, with each session designed to suit the primary school age group. Each Ladybirds location is run by a dedicated center coordinator/accredited coach to ensure the delivery of the best quality experience and coaching at each of the Ladybirds Centers.

Ladybirds is specially designed for young girls who may or may not have had an introduction to, or past experience with football. The program caters for learning basic skills which will not only develop their football but also basic motor skills. Ladybirds is designed for every skill and activity level. The program is fun and inclusive.

Girls who are current football participants are encouraged to attend to keep fit and active over the summer months. It’s the ideal time to perfect football skills for the next season.

Ladybirds have many social and physical benefits for all participants including:

•Learning to cooperate with and respect one another within a team environment
•Engaging in social interaction with girls of a similar age
•Being exposed to and learning to adapt to new situations
•Learning the importance of self-motivation and the importance of always doing your best
