Football, fun and unforgettable memories
Birthday parties
A football party in the arena, in the middle of Market Harborough. You run the football, the pitch is indoors, and it doesn’t matter in the slightest what the weather is doing that Saturday.
Birthday celebration
Football, fun and a party to remember
A fun, football-focused birthday held in the arena — designed to give children an active and memorable way to celebrate with their friends.
It’s indoors
No watching the forecast all week, no phoning round on the Friday night. The pitch is under a roof and the party happens.
Games and challenges
Active football activities, skills and mini matches — and something for the ones who don’t really want to play football.
They actually run around
A full indoor pitch, goals, and as many balls as it takes. They go home tired, which is the whole point.
Three packages
Pick how much you want doing for you
All three run for ninety minutes on the indoor astro, for up to fourteen children, with a goodie bag for every one of them. The difference is who leads the football.
A picture with the Premier League trophy
Every party gets a photograph with the Premier League trophy. It is the bit the children talk about afterwards, and it costs nothing extra.
When
Weekends, mostly
Parties normally run at weekends. Midweek evenings can be arranged on request — ask us and we will see what we can do.
What’s included
All three packages include
Whichever you choose, all of this comes with it.
- 90 minutes of astro pitch hire
- Use of all our equipment
- A WDR goodie bag for every child
- A special trophy for the birthday boy or girl
- Medals for all the children
- A chance to have a picture taken with the Premier League trophy
- A WDR staff member on site throughout
- Up to 14 children
Not sure which? The No Coach party has no coach at all — you run the football and we set the equipment out. Premier League is the same, but you can bring your own coach. Champions League has one of ours running the whole thing.
Because of the numbers we strongly recommend the birthday child’s parents stay for the party. Any other parents are very welcome to stay too.

Questions
The things parents ask
Can we bring our own food for the children?
Yes — bring as much as you like. Please be aware the WDR Football Centre does not supply food or any kitchen utensils such as cutlery or plates, so if you have a birthday cake or snacks we recommend bringing your own. We have a table and chairs beside the astro pitch for food to go on, and we can offer drinks such as water. Please note no alcohol is allowed.
What should children bring and wear?
Comfy football clothes and suitable footwear to play football in. We recommend children bring their own water bottles.
Can we bring decorations?
Yes. Please speak to us beforehand if you have something specific planned — we can arrange a time for you to bring the decorations to the centre before the party, and make sure everything is set out ready for when the birthday boy or girl walks in.
How many children can come?
Up to fourteen. Because of the numbers we strongly recommend the birthday child’s parents stay for the party, and any other parents are very welcome to stay as well.
