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

Bunnies classes introduce toddlers to soccer with games that allow them to run, play as a group and kick a ball. They gain basic soccer skills while building fundamentals such as balance and coordination. Classes incorporate activities that are geared toward a toddler’s unique way of learning and include parachutes, bubbles, noodles, cones, lots of goal scoring and more.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
