How it works
No new drop-offs. No gear to buy.
Soccer sessions at your child's own school, on the oval they already play on, with the friends they already know. Choose from before-school, lunchtime or after-school programs, making it easy to fit quality coaching into your family's routine. Our sessions are designed to help children build confidence, develop their skills and enjoy the game in a fun, familiar environment.
Sessions are for Prep to Grade 6. You book by the term, and if you join part-way through you only pay for the sessions remaining. Every child receives a certificate at term's end. Sibling discount: email us and we'll apply 25% off the second child.
New to Pateka? The first session is free. Runners and a water bottle, our coaches handle the rest.
