Ginger Sports for the 2 year old and the crazy older one

Ginger Sports

I have been a HUGE fan of Ginger Sports even since I phoned them one morning when I first started Brisbane Kids- I love their vision for healthy, happy and active Brisbane Kids- because.. that is also our vision..our original vision. We believe that kids need outdoor time and that sunshine and activity are some of the greatest gifts we can give our Brisbane kids- that is why we LOVE Ginger Sport and all Sport for Brisbane Kids.

So why have I waited so long to give Ginger Sport Soccer for Kids a go? I DONT KNOW!!! actually my four year old has had a few things come up that meant WE thought he wasn’t ready.. we would ask ‘would you like to give soccer a go’ he would ‘no’ we would accept that….

AND then finally our other son Tom turned 2, just as a Ginger Sport lesson came to our suburb. So we went for our FREE trial lesson with Tom. I didnt have great expectations. Was a wrong! he kicked- he ran, he laughed. I laughed, my 4 year old laughed.. kids ran after balls, after birds, after their mothers..

The Ginger Sport Coaches were amazing.. let me say that again.. The coaches were amazing.. They had both my boys in stitches and soon my 4 year old was saying- “I want to play”. So the coaches were patient with my 4 yr olds insistence in being involved and then even more patient when it was actually his class.

So let me share some insights

2 yr olds really do kick the ball ..really!! and apart from kicking they start to learn skills like standing in line, waiting their turn, running after each other and simply having fun!!!
Ginger Sports use lots of fun games to make movement of the ball fun- this is about FUN FUN FUN
The coaches are far more patient than me.. and funnier.. and evidently have a lot more energy than me
The coaches don’t mind if your 4 year old child like mine interrupts everything they have to say.

So there you go.. so if you have been wondering.. wonder no more- head to a trial class near you- there are plenty! And if like us you had asked your Brisbane Kid and they didnt seem interested, then it might be, that like us, your Brisbane Kids really didn’t know what soccer really means.. because thats what we discovered with our 4 year old and now he thinks Ginger Sport soccer is the greatest thing in the world..
