Free football lessons through McDonalds

FREE kids’ football sessions – For ages 5-11 with FA-qualified coaches. Register online at McDonald’s

Please see information below which you may wish to share with parents (https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/m/mcdonalds.html)

This deal is Golden Arches meets Golden Balls… McDonald’s has partnered with UK football associations to run a series of free football sessions for kids aged 5-11 over autumn.

If your child has a goal of being the next David Beckham or Leah Williamson, you can score these free coaching lessons now. The sessions are taking place at over 1,500 locations on selected dates from Saturday 7th September until Saturday 30th November, and include one-hour coaching each week from FA-qualified coaches.

There’s no obligation to buy or eat anything at McDonald’s in order to get these sessions – they’re totally free to attend – you just need to pre-book online by filling in the form at McDonald’s ‘Fun Football‘ and selecting which centre you’d like to attend.

You can register for up to five children, and it’s mainly aimed at those who aren’t currently playing, with sessions focussing on basic footballing technique. You’ll need to provide your own suitable footwear and football clothing. Pan-disability and visual impairment sessions will also be available. Kids can attend as many sessions as they please (there’s no limit on attendance), but slots are booked on a first-come, first-served basis so go quick if there’s a certain date or time you want to attend.

See McDonald’s for full terms & conditions and frequently asked questions.
