Instructional Rec Soccer

The Instructional Rec Program (level I) is designed for boys and girls, ages 3-12, interested in developing basic soccer skills, such as: Passing & control, dribbling, heading, finishing & shooting.

Groups are divided according to gender, age and skill level.

Sessions are focused on individual skill development and small sided games.

Instructional Rec players do not play in any league games or tournaments. Once players complete at least one season of our Instructional Rec Program, players may qualify to participate in our Advanced Rec Program (level II).
