Our MiniRoos Kick-Off program is the perfect starting point for young players who are new to soccer or still developing their skills. The nation-wide initiative uses short, game-based sessions to introduce the sport of football to newcomers in an inclusive way.
Designed for both boys and girls aged 7 to 11, the program focuses on creating a fun, supportive, and engaging environment where children can build confidence, make new friends, and develop essential football skills.
Instead of the standard 11-a-side format, MiniRoos uses smaller-sided games (4v4, 7v7, and 9v9) on reduced-size pitches. This approach ensures more ball time, more touches, and more chances to score — leading to a faster-paced, more enjoyable experience that keeps kids active and involved in every moment of the game.
At Truganina Lions, we aim to foster a lasting passion for soccer, providing every child with the tools and encouragement they need to grow — from grassroots right through to potential progression into a professional pathway.
Training sessions are held on weeknights, depending on your child’s team, and games are played on Sunday mornings.
