MiniRoos is aimed at volunteer parents and coaches working with novice players or players aged approximately up to ten (10) years old. The session is entirely practical and encourages the coach to create games based on enjoyment. The focus of the course is on learning by playing football, by encouraging players to develop a love for the game through fun games and play. The course also explains fundamental game rules for Miniroos age groups, and provides guidance on how coaches create an enjoyable and safe football environment.
