You are looking for fun and regular child soccer training sessions in Somerset West? Then the YB Stars program is the perfect fit for you! We are always happy to welcome new players of any skill level. The money earned will be used for our NGO.
We offer holistic soccer and education programs for kids (male / female) between 6 and 18 years. Learn about our 4 development programs below.
Age Groups U12 / U14 / U16 / U18
The players of the Academy League teams consist of talented football players, most of whom come from the surrounding townships. All township players receive a free full scholarship including playing and training equipment, food packages after each session, transportation and a complementary educational program, as well as participation in life skills events. Periodized training sessions are held 3-4 times a week. In the Academy League we compete against (youth) teams from the 1st and 2nd South African leagues, among others.
Age Groups U12 / U14 / U16 / U18
Through qualified teachers, Young Bafana offers English tutoring for the U12 and U14 age groups. In addition, we offer a career counselling program for the players of our U16 and U18 teams. For all teams, Young Bafana offers life skill workshops at regular intervals, which are also integrated into soccer training, among other things. Ultimately, our programs have a direct and indirect impact on the socially weaker population of the Helderberg region.
Age Groups U7 – U16
The STARS Programme is dedicated to provide a space where children from the ages of u7 to u16, irrespective of their skill level, can come together for weekly training sessions to have fun, improve their skills, be active and socialise with friends. Important basic elements of soccer are developed creatively and with a lot of fun in the weekly training sessions.
