Lets Kick It! Competitors

Here at The FA we are responsible for overseeing, promoting and developing English football at all levels, from grassroots through to the professional game. We have big ambitions. Some of our objectives include ensuring that The Emirates FA cup remains the world’s premier cup competition, that Wembley Stadium and St. George’s Park continue to be world-class venues, and that success is achieved with each of our 24 national sides. The shared values, vision and pride of our people is central to our success. We are growing a team of highly skilled, passionate and hardworking individuals who are committed to the future of English football. We understand that diversity promotes innovation, and therefore we look for people who are great at what they do, no matter their background. Our work at The FA varies greatly and so do our career opportunities. If you are looking for a new and exciting challenge in a progressive organisation which is striving for excellence, please take a look at our current opportunities: http://www.thefa.com/about-football-association/careers/

At Little Kickers we run football classes for pre-school kids (aged 18 months - 7th birthday). A key aspect of our mission is to enable all pre-school children to gain a fun, positive introduction to sport in a friendly, non-competitive environment. Over the last 10 years, we have been able to package the world’s favourite game into a leading edutainment business that enables boys and girls to learn the fundamentals of football blended with the skills appropriate to key stages of learning and development in an environment that fires their imaginations. Our company motto is "Play not Push" - emphasising the importance we place on ensuring the kids have fun at our classes and they learn through playing, rather than our classes acting as a mechanism for parents to pressure their kids into competing. Little Kickers was set up in the UK in 2002 and now operates through a network of over 300 franchisees across 6 continents with over 70,000 children participating in our program every week.

GOALS is the market leader in the fast-growing small-sided football market. The Company currently operates 43 clubs in the UK. Each GOALS club features between 8 and 18 LED-floodlit, custom-built arenas. We offer 5-a-side and 7-a-side leagues, tournaments, casual games, junior football leagues and football coaching (coaching camps during school holidays). In addition to our vibrant clubhouses, which cater for players' food and drink needs pre and post-football, we also offer children's parties and function spaces for hire to suit a number of occasions. We are the only small-sided football business to have ProTurf, all-weather pitches - the latest generation of playing surfaces with three core layers, including suspension for a more comfortable, longer playing experience.
