Heaton Stan Wildcats

The Stan Wildcats is a fun way for girls aged 5-11 to get involved with football. Sessions delivered by FA qualified coaches supported by role models from our older girls team provide an environment for non-competitive football for girls who want to give football a go for the very first time or just want to play with other girls their own age. Most importantly, Wildcats is all about having loads of fun and meeting new amazing friends.

Before moving to an indoor venue for the winter, our Wildcat sessions are based at Paddy Freeman’s Park on a Thursday between 6-7pm.
