Program Details This five-week program for boys and girls (birth years 2016-2020) is a perfect extension of the summer season, with an emphasis on fun and building individual skills. There are no set teams or coaches. Instead, the goal is to experience the joy of soccer through small-sided games and activities designed to build fundamental skills in a low-pressure environment.

Thank you so much for volunteering to help with this program! We couldn't do it without you. Here are a few things to know for the sessions:
What to Wear: Please come dressed to participate. Comfortable athletic clothing and sneakers are perfect.
Your Role: Your main role will be to help the sessions run smoothly by collecting loose soccer balls and keeping them nearby during gameplay.
The Goal is Fun: Your most important job is simply to encourage the players and cheer them on. Our lesson plans are designed to guide the activities, so you can focus on making sure the kids are having a great time.
We are thrilled to have you on the field with us!
We can't wait to see you at the Fall Soccer Sessions! To help everything run smoothly and ensure the kids have maximum fun, here is some important information for each session.
Arrival and Gameday Checklist
Please arrive 15 minutes early for your session, with your player fully prepared to take the field.
A prepared player has:
First Session (Week 1) T-Shirt Distribution We will hand out program t-shirts before the first session begins. Please be prepared for your child to change into their shirt on-site. This may cause a brief delay, but we'll get everyone moving as soon as possible! For all following weeks, please arrive with your player already wearing their program shirt.
Our Focus: Fun and Participation! Our staff has designed these sessions for active play and enjoyment. It's important that players arrive ready to jump in and participate so they can get the most out of every activity. We're confident they will look forward to coming each week!
How We Create Game Groups Please note that for the game portion of the session, our staff may make groups smaller or larger as needed. This flexibility lets us adjust the gameplay to create balanced matchups, which gives all participants the chance to be creative, competitive, and have fun in their own style.
