This program teaches the fundamentals of soccer the players will need as they progress through the Club’s age groups.
Players will play 4v4 small-sided games to demonstrate their newly-developed skills.
At this age, the focus is on having fun and developing fundamental ball skills, not on the competitive aspects of the game.
The season is typically 8 weeks long and runs April to May in the Spring and September to October in the Fall.
Field Information: The U6 fields are located at Old Homestead Park at 30 Hayloft Road, Denver, PA 17517.
Games: Saturday Mornings from usually played at 11:30- to about 12:30.
Practice: A one hour practice is held during the week on days selected by the volunteer parent coach (a great way to select your child’s practice night is to become a volunteer coach – training and materials are provided).
