Testimonials from parents and carers of Wims11 Kids

I first took my daughter to Little Nipper Soccer when she was nearly 1. She’s nearly 2 now and gets so excited to see her kit out on Monday morning ready to go to Football. She loves it, & loves Shaun too! She even gets other people in shops shaking their football shirts and kissing the badge!

E Frost

I’d highly recommend a Wims party! My son and all his friends had such a fabulous time. The coaches were fantastic and the extra touches made it a very special and memorable event!

P Maund

My son absolutely loved his first Little Nippers Class. I was so proud of him, it was age and stage appropriate which is hard to find! I would recommend Wims11 highly to any parent, they’re welcoming, friendly and most of all engaging. Can’t wait for the rest of the term and his football future with an Academy that knows their stuff!

G Knights-Ward

Wims11 is an awesome academy for all ages and abilities. Our boys absolutely love it and have improved tenfold at Wims. Plus, just as importantly, they’ve made some great friends.

My son mason is now loving Mondays! We don’t have the “I don’t want to get up, I don’t want to go to school” all because of football Monday evenings. He is absolutely loving it! Thank you.

This is the best activity I do with my son, he loves it! The coaches are brilliant with the children and the sessions are engaging and educational at the same time. I highly recommend them.

Wims is excellent with the kids from the young ones right up to the older kids at Academy level. All the coaches have the right attitude and skills to make football fun.
