Our Cubs

Our Cubs Soccer School

Every legend starts with a single roar. At Ambleside Junior Football Club, our mini soccer program in Nuneaton is the first step on a journey that leads from the local park to the grandest stages. Our inclusive sessions are open to both boys and girls, as we nurture the pride, courage, and teamwork required to turn today’s Cubs into the England Lions of tomorrow.

Following the FA Play Phase philosophy, our football sessions in Nuneaton are built on the spirit of discovery. Our sessions are run by FA qualified coaches who swap rigid drills for play-based learning, encouraging every child to find their own feet, boost their agility, and fall in love with the game at one of the leading junior football clubs in the area.

Ready to join the pride? Our Ambleside Cubs training schedule is designed for convenience, offering dedicated Saturday morning football sessions in Nuneaton for both Reception and Year 1 age groups. If you want to know more about our trial sessions, monthly fees, and the essential kit your player needs to get started, see below for full details.

The Pre-Match Briefing: Get Your Kit On!

Before you cross the white line and join the pride, make sure you’ve completed your pre-match checklist. Just like the pros at Wembley, being prepared is the first step to a win!

⚽ The Essential Gear

The Uniform: Standard sports clothing (similar to school PE kit) is perfect. Pro Tip: If you have green and white gear, wear it with pride to show your team spirit!

The Boots: Lace up your football boots (moulded studs) or sturdy trainers. We need that grip for those world-class turns!

The Armour: Shin pads are mandatory. Every Lion and Lioness needs their protection before going into a tackle.

The Fuel: A labelled water bottle. Staying hydrated is the key to playing like a pro!

🌦️ Tactical Weather Substitutions

The Summer Sign-on: If it’s sunny, don’t forget your cap and your “invisible war paint” (sunscreen).

The Winter Workout: If it’s a cold “away day” feel, coats, gloves, and hats are a must to stay match-fit!

🌟 The “Secret Weapon”

The Mindset: A massive smile and a roar of enthusiasm. Skills are great, but Positive Energy is what makes a champion!
