Other/General FAQs

What should my child bring to each session? 

You can find details of what your child will need for their session inside your booking confirmation. However, in general children will need: 
Sports appropriate shoes and clothes 

  • A bottle of water 
  • A snack  
  • A jumper 

For football, your child will also need:

  • Astro trainers or football boots 
  • Shin pads 
What happens if it is raining heavily (or other extreme weather)? 

We aim to run all our sessions in all weather. On rare occasions, we must cancel sessions due to extreme weather. If this happens, we will contact you as soon as possible. 

What qualifications do your coaches have? 

All coaches are DBS checked. Football coaches are qualified to at least FA Level 1. Netball coaches are qualified to at least ENG Netball Level 1. Gymnastics coaches are all qualified through British Gymnastics.  

Do you offer scholarships or bursaries? 

We are always working to improve access to sports to all children. Being from a lower-income family should never affect this. We currently offer bursaries to families that cannot afford our sessions on a case-by-case basis. We are also in the process of having out Football and Netball clubs registered as charities so that we can help as many children and families as possible.  

Currently these bursaries are limited, but please contact admin@shootingstarz.co.uk or speak to Luke or Yusuf directly to see how we can help.

How do I order kit? 

All kits are ordered at the start of the season. You will be given information once your child joins a team. Gymnastics kits are provided as part of your initial membership fee. We make ad-hoc kits orders throughout the year, so please contact us or your coach to find out more. All kit is subject to availability.
