Our youth soccer programs introduce kids to the world's most popular sport while helping them build confidence in a friendly and supportive environment. Kids will not only become better soccer players but better people as well! We offer soccer during the fall with the occasional indoor winter season. Developmental skills clinics are offered from time to time as well.
Rookie Soccer
The Y's Rookie Soccer is designed for the beginner who wants to develop as a person and a player all while having fun! Open to those 3-8 years old, we focus on the fundamentals of the game through exciting drills and games which will help hand-eye coordination, teamwork and soccer skills. The first two weeks will consist of practices, with games taking place the last three weeks. Participation in Rookie Soccer is FREE with a Family membership to the Y.
