Beginning Soccer

Beginning Soccer is an introductory program for three and four year olds. Ronald Hendrie began the program 27 years ago, when he realized there was a need for youngsters to learn the basics of soccer individually before they begin team play. The focus is on promoting skills, sportsmanship, coordination, discipline and teamwork. Children are taught essential soccer moves mixed in with other fun activities – dribbling, scoring, throw-ins, and the fundamental rule – no hands in soccer unless you are the goalie!

The program meets Saturday mornings from 9:30 to 10:30 and runs from September to March. Classes are held first outdoors on the field at Castle Park, then in late October, classes are held in the gym at Green Chimneys. The cost of the 25-session program is $120.
