MILO Fantails FAQs

What to Expect

How do I book someone on to attend a MILO Fantails session?
You can book their place online before attending a session or just turn up and we will get you registered manually.

My daughter is really nervous and has never played football before, can she attend Fantails?

Definitely! This programme is perfect for her. We believe that football is for everyone and want to ensure that every girl has an opportunity to take part and has a great experience. Get in touch with us and let us know how we can best support. 

Is there an equivalent boys programme?
MILO Fantails was developed to target female participants as currently only 1 in 5 players playing football in NZ are female. There are over 400 clubs in NZ who offer NZF's Junior Framework and all of these clubs offer boys or mixed football, however only a small percentage offer a girls programme. If you have a young boy who would like to play, please contact us to see what's on offer.

How long does a MILO Fantails session last?
Sessions will run for one hour.

What do you wear to a MILO Fantails session?

Comfortable clothes she can run around in (and turf football boots if she has them)

Can she bring a friend to a MILO Fantails session?

Absolutely! All hubs welcome new girls to participate and will offer free sessions for new players.

Who runs the MILO Fantails sessions?
All sessions are delivered by our super friendly, NZF qualified coaches. The welfare of your daughter is key, so we ensure that all Fantails coaches are fully trained in health and safety, safeguarding and more.
