Hey everyone,

How did your child fall in love with the beautiful game?

Was it by themselves? Was it a friend or a sibling? How and when did you get involved?

Me - I didn’t leave it to chance.

We made a football part of the family from early.

We made up stories, characters and games to create a rapport with the ball.

That journey and that intention created two football-loving kids.

It also created the Aniballers Instagram page.

We’ll always be about sharing the journey 🤝 of our kids and your kids amazing progress.

🦁 And now, the Aniballers characters - the football-mad team we dreamt up at the beginning of all if this, are coming to life.

We’ve got a new podcast incoming with the first series of Aniballers stories.

And right now we have a chance for you to win an Aniballers Golden Ball. 🟡 

Have a read below- it’s your advice we’re after.

Thanks for you support. You’re doing a great job!

Let’s get into it👇️

🛠️ Skills and drills and video tape

Some of the best from our timelines this week:

💪 Control and stability plus work with the ball in this at-home setup

✨ This is a great drill for inventive ball control. How to master one move with the reps.

✂️ Touch and scissors… a superb slomo guide to beating an opponent.

🤹 A keepy uppy variation that looks simple you can use in games.

📹️ Simple fun games keep the vibe levels in training. Love this from La Liga.
