  • Y5/6 Football Club (Lunch Time)

    Football club will continue to run every week as a lunch time club for the Spring term.
    Boys have been assigned to either Shiphay Rovers or Shiphay Athletic. They should know which team they are in - if your child is unaware, please ask them to see Mr Ellis. 

    Training days  (12:15 - 12:45):

    Monday - Shiphay Athletic 

    Tuesday - Shiphay Girls team

    Thursday -  Shiphay Rovers

    Your child MUST bring their own football boots, shin pads, t-shirt, shorts and socks to attend training. The quicker the team changes at the start of lunch (in ELM class), the more training time they will have. Training is from 12:15 - 12:45 (before Upper KS2 dinner begin). 

    To be considered to represent our school against other teams, each child is required to have had a consent form filled out by a parent/guardian. Consent forms have been given to all members of the football club. Please ask Mr Ellis for a copy if you have misplaced yours. 

    When representing the school, your child will be provided a school football kit. However, they will still need to bring their own shin pads and boots. Without these items, they cannot play. 

    Please be advised, training can be cancelled on the day due to staffing, weather or unforeseen circumstances. Similarly, matches can be cancelled up until the day of arranged fixtures for the same reasons. 

    During the club, we will provide skill based drills to enhance each child’s ability and confidence across all essential areas of football. In addition to this, we will also improve our knowledge of the game, team work and communication skills.
