We’re excited to unveil the launch of “Totties Training”, an exclusive session designed to take your child’s soccer skills to the next level. Led by our dedicated coach Adrian, Totties Training will provide specialised coaching tailored specifically for 5–8-year-olds, helping them develop fundamental skills and a love for the game in a supportive and engaging environment. These sessions will take place every Thursday at 4.15pm at The AB in Concord West, ensuring your child receives the focused attention they deserve to thrive on the field.
Recognising the crucial development stage for young athletes, we’re dedicated to providing focused training that goes beyond simply showing up for games.

At Soccer Totties, we understand the importance of proper training at a young age, and we are committed to nurturing each child’s passion for the game while helping them develop essential skills in a supportive and engaging environment.
