Little Kickers:
This program prepares children for organized soccer in a fun environment. The children and their parents will learn together skills like kicking, dribbling, trapping, throw ins and agility. This is a great way to introduce soccer at a young age. This is not a league – therefore there are no coaches, practices, etc. We meet once a week for 45 minutes to learn the basics of soccer. Registration is on a first come first served basis. When the class roster is filled, registration will be closed.
