A junior control cleat for the kid who makes space

The New Balance Junior Tekela Team Low is made for young players who play with their head up. A soft synthetic forefoot and a low, laced collar keep the ball close, so your junior can shield, turn, and pass through traffic. Crafted for control, scaled for grade-school feet.

Built on the New Balance Tekela control line

Tekela is the touch cleat New Balance builds around first-touch feel, worn at the top level by Endrick, Harvey Elliott, and Jordyn Huitema. This junior version carries the same control-first idea in a fit made for a real kid's foot.

Who these junior Tekela cleats are for

If your player needs a wider, roomier fit that most youth cleats skip, these earn a look. New Balance youth soccer cleats for the creative junior on grass who wants to feel the ball, not fight their footwear.

FAQs about the JR Tekela Team Low

Do the Junior Tekela cleats run true to size?

They fit true on a wider junior last, so a broader foot gets room without sizing up. Between sizes, the extra width usually covers it.

Can my kid wear these on turf?

The firm-ground outsole is built for natural grass and dry fields. For artificial turf, a dedicated turf shoe is the better pick.
