Program Overview
Mini Kickers Overview | 2025-2026 Season
The Mini Kickers program focuses on FUNdamental soccer skills and techniques, including motor skills, social skills, and coordination. Each session will follow our age appropriate curriculum.
U4 (2022) Boys & Girls
U5 (2021) Boys & Girls
U6 (2020) Boys & Girls
Each practice will include individual ball work to start, learning skills & coordination with the ball, before progressing into small group activities, where we encourage teamwork and cooperation. We will always end with players going to goal. As we progress through the program, we will work towards small sided scrimmages, which will prepare the players for when they graduate to the Academy program (U7-U8) in the future.
