BOAMBEE Football Club Launches Free “Bumble Bees” Soccer Program for Young Beginners Boambee Football Club is buzzing with excitement as it launches the Boambee Bumble Bees, a free four-week introductory soccer program designed especially for young children new to the game. Starting Tuesday, 17 February 2026, the program is open to children aged 5 to 8 years who have no prior soccer experience. The initiative aims to provide a fun, supportive, and confidence-building introduction to football in a relaxed, non-competitive environment. The Boambee Bumble Bees program will be led by senior premier league players from Boambee FC, giving young participants the opportunity to learn basic skills, coordination, and teamwork while being inspired by experienced local players. “We know that trying a new sport can be daunting for kids and parents alike” Boambee FC President Aaron Banks said. “This program is all about fun first — helping kids build confidence, make friends, and see if soccer is something they enjoy, without any pressure or cost.” The four-week “come and try” format also gives families a chance to experience the club’s strong community culture before committing to a full season. Places are limited, and parents are encouraged to register early.
