🐺⚽ March at WolfPack Football! ⚽🐺

This week marked something really special for us, our first session outside of our regular Sunday groups 💙

We were delighted to deliver a session for the Little Seeds group of Parent Led Autism Network Dublin 5, Dublin 13, Dublin 17, and it was fantastic to bring WolfPack to a different area.

We’ll be back with them again next Monday, and then our regular Sunday sessions return for the final two weeks of March.

Exciting times for WolfPack as we continue to grow 🐺⚽️🥅

Some of our reviews below reflect what WolfPack is all about. Support. Confidence. Fun.

If your child needs a football environment that understands their needs we’d love to welcome you to the WolfPack for a session. ⚽

10 sessions = 10 stickers = 100% Wolfpack legend 🐺⭐

Here's one of our Superstars showing his Certificate for attending 10 Wolfpack football classes! Well done! 👏⚽️🥇

At WolfPack Football, routine is one of the most important foundations of our sessions. Each week our classes follow the same structure:

- Welcome & warm-up song to get moving
- Three familiar core games
- A shooting game or obstacle course
- Sticker hunt & finish

This predictability helps children feel safe, confident and ready to engage. We can see clearly from the start to the end of each block how each child progresses on each game once they become familiar. When children know what’s coming next, they can focus more energy on playing, learning and enjoying themselves instead of the worry of something new becoming a challenge.

⚽️🥅How we use routine in class:
We keep the structure the same every week and only introduce one new game at most each session, while keeping the rest familiar. This works well when we sandwich a new element between two games that we know the kids enjoy and are familiar with.

Our structured routine supports regulation, confidence & independence, willingness to try new skills and improve weekly.

Making the transitions from each game a bit more fun is part of our sessions each week also. By asking the kids to help gather cones or by using the "ball monster" we make tidy up and transitions a game which we hope can help our kids in other areas of their daily routine outside of our Football session

🏟Try this at home:
Create a simple routine for a playtime session (e.g. warm-up song → game → tidy up). Using the same order each time can really help your child feel calm & confident and progress. Let us know how it goes and even better if you copy some of our WolfPack games to do this 🙂

Last Sunday we finished up for Xmas feeling proud, thankful and already excited for what’s next. 🐺⚽️
Thank you to everyone that support the first two months of Wolfpack sessions. We'll be back in January scoring goals and having lots of fun!🎄⚽️🥅

Sunday was the last session of our November classes and we want to say a huge thank you for your continued support. It’s been another brilliant month of fun and teamwork from all of our WolfPack.

This month, we introduced a few new games to go with the ones we played in our first block and these games are designed to support both football skills and wider developmental goals.

The children did amazing work with imaginative and active play through these games!
We can see the progress each week as we work on:
-Throwing & catching
- Running & dodging
- Balancing & coordination
- Kicking & footwork
-Problem-solving & following instructions
-Sorting colours & working together to “Beat the Coaches”

We’re delighted to continue the fun with classes on 7th, 14th, and 21st of December, we’ll also hold a Christmas Session to wrap up the year on the 21st!
