The Junior Kickers program is for boys and girls in Kindergarten and 1st grade and allows our youngest players to learn to love soccer while having fun [children in 2nd through 8th grades should check out our Intramural Program]

Teams practice one day a week with games on Saturdays. A parent or guardian must be in attendance at each session as parent/guardian involvement is an integral part of the program of having fun while learning and playing soccer. Practices are run by professional trainers from United Soccer Academy with a philosophy of fun, skill building and soccer games. Games are coached and refereed by parent volunteers. No game scores are recorded as the goal is to enjoy soccer, not compete.

Game Days

All games have a 45 minute time slot in which to be played. Players are expected to arrive 30 minutes before kick-off time to take part in a team warm up activity and to be ready to start their game at the correct time. Late starts result in shortened game times. This year we will alert all coaches 5 minutes prior to the end of the game and they must be off the field for the next games to begin.
Please ensure your child wears their team t-shirt shinguards, sports clothing i.e. shorts and socks or pants as well as cleats or sneakers.
