Children Ages 1 Through 3 As Of July 31st 2024
Overview
This level of play provides a true introduction to soccer for beginner 1-2-3 year old children and their parents. During a session, the child will be introduced to some fun age-appropriate soccer related activities. The main emphasis throughout each session is on trying to help the child to have a fun time. Important in helping to make this an enjoyable experience for the child is constructive input and involvement from their parents throughout the season. The child will benefit from this level of play's educational value, physical fitness, soccer skills development, social growth aspects, and most of all fun. Both the child and one or both parents participate with the child in each session.
It is our hope by introducing these younger children to soccer's basics and helping them to get use to being around and working with others, they will become more comfortable with the experience, learn a little, and have that much more of an enjoyable time as a season progresses. Keeping in mind that with these younger ages despite everyone's efforts they may choose some days to not engage in some of a session's activities.
