Soccer Classes for Kids Ages 18 Months – 10 Years

24 – 36 MONTHS
ADULT INTERACTIVE
15:1 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

In this class, kids begin to learn to actively engage with the coach and other players.

Parents and kids, led by one of our instructors, play organized games together to develop listening skills, balance, ball skills and foot-eye coordination. Thumpers is the ideal next step for Bunnies veterans and a perfect introduction to Lil’ Kickers for new players.

*This is an adult interactive class. Adult participation is required and supports the success and confidence of your soccer player on the field.

2½ – 3½ YEARS
ADULT INTERACTIVE
7:1 or 14:2 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

Here, preschoolers who are not quite ready to be on the field alone discover some independence.

Cottontails is a class designed for children who are ready for more of a challenge than a Thumpers class, but who are not quite ready to be on the field without a parent or caregiver. The Cottontails curriculum is designed to build fundamental skills such as balance, coordination, and ball-kicking skills. Cottontails classes also offer another component—helping your child build a sense of independence. As children progress through the session and become ready for more independence, parents can choose to transition to a less active role in the class.

*This is an adult interactive class. Adult participation is required and supports the success and confidence of your soccer player on the field.

3 & 4 YEARS
7:1 or 14:2 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

To share and share alike? Not always. These kiddos are raring to go, but need lots of direction to get there.

Hoppers classes are designed to be fun and fast paced. Classes focus on increasing balancing skills, coordination and fundamental soccer skills. We utilize creative games and help kids develop listening skills, cooperation and teamwork. Hoppers classes are the first class where children participate independently.

3 & 4 YEARS
7:1 or 14:2 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

Fun and fast-paced classes for kids who are naturally a little more competitive or with previous class experience.

Jackrabbits is an intermediate class for kids ages 3-4 years old. We strongly recommend that your child has completed Hoppers (beginner class for kids ages 3-4) before participating in our Jackrabbits or is at least 3.5 years old. 

Jackrabbits classes are designed to help transition children into non-competitive team play.  Children play creative games to develop fundamental soccer skills and will also be introduced to more one-ball oriented games and scrimmaging. The focus of the scrimmages will be to help players understand how to apply skills in different situations and build teamwork.  Some small-sided non-competitive soccer games are introduced.

4 – 5 YEARS
12:1 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

For kids who are driven to play.

Micro 4/5 classes are for four and five year olds with previous soccer experience who are ready for more of a challenge. Players learn more advanced fundamental soccer skills through fun, age-appropriate and creative skill-building games and have the opportunity to practice those skills in non-competitive scrimmages.

5 – 6 YEARS
12:1 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

For kids who are just getting introduced to organized soccer or who are less competitive by nature but want a great soccer experience.

Some kids are a little shy and perhaps not very competitive by nature, but still want to learn a sport and have a team experience. We get that. Big Feet classes serve these kids well. Full of all the same fun, goofiness and opportunities to learn soccer and life skills, these classes do it just a little differently. After all, lack of experience or temperament shouldn’t keep us from getting in the game.

6 – 7 YEARS
12:1 CHILD-TO-COACH RATIO

For kids who are driven to play.

Does your child always have a ball at their feet? Constantly talk about soccer? Or are they simply driven to get better? Created for kids who are motivated soccer players, Micro classes kick it up a notch. While coaching remains child-centered and fun this curriculum is fundamentals focused and provides game-like situations each week that help solidify learning. Players enjoy 30 minutes of age-appropriate instruction and 20 minutes of small-sided scrimmaging.
