Join Australia's favourite grassroots football program where every child can learn, play and belong.
Coles MiniRoos is the official national introductory program designed for kids of all abilities, aged 4 to 11 years. The nationwide initiative uses short, game-based sessions to introduce the sport of football to newcomers in an inclusive way.
It focuses on learning new skills, being active, making life-long friends and, potentially, unearthing the next generation of Commbank Socceroos or Commbank Matildas.
Approved by Football Australia, the 4-12 week program features 45-60 minute sessions, designed to create environments that are fun and supportive, full of energy, and full of laughter.
Split into two programs delivered by local clubs and schools, Coles MiniRoos Kick-Off and Coles MiniRoos Club Team, there is an option for every kid to participate:
Coles MiniRoos Kick-Off (Ages 4-11)
This program is the introductory football program, perfect for a first football experience. It is non-competitive, with skills-based sessions for beginners, focusing on skill-building and confidence through short game-based sessions.

Coles MiniRoos Club Team (Ages 5-11)
Perfect for kids who are ready to play football in a team. This program involves small-sided club football for developing players, with an emphasis on teamwork, belonging, and local competitions. It uses small-sided games (4v4, 7v7, 9v9) to give younger players more touches, more involvement, and more opportunities to score.
