Starter Soccer is the perfect introduction to organized sports for young athletes (5-7 yr). Designed for developing players, this structured 8-week program features:
Small-sided game play to encourage teamwork and active participation, based on instructor evaluation of skill progression and readiness for gameplay.
Weekly skill development sessions to build basic sport skills.
Once gameplay begins, our emphasis is to reinforce learning through play.
Each session concludes with a character development activity that reflects the day’s experience and emphasizes YMCA core values: caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.
Led by trained YMCA staff, the program follows a developmentally appropriate curriculum that balances athletic instruction with emotional and social growth.
