How It Works
This is not traditional soccer. Sessions focus on helping children develop basic motor skills — hopping, skipping, jumping, running, throwing, balancing, and kicking — through play-based activities.
Children are grouped by age (4U or 5U) and meet once per week for one hour. There are no formal teams, no scores, and no standings.
Session Times
Sessions typically run at:
- 8-9am
- 9-10am
- 10-11am
You’ll be assigned to a session when you register.
