The Tots Program is an exciting and engaging introduction to soccer for our youngest players! Designed for children who are 3 years old or older at the start of the first session, this program focuses on building fundamental soccer skills in a fun, supportive environment.
What We Do:
In the Tots Program, players will engage in a variety of activities to develop basic movement and soccer skills. Every child use their own ball (1:1 ball-to-player ratio), allowing them to get plenty of touches and practice important skills. Our activities are designed to be interactive and fun, helping players build confidence, coordination, and a love for the game!
Some examples of the games we play include:
- Red Light, Green Light - (dribble while looking up, stopping a ball quickly and going again)
- Stuck in the Mud - (avoiding other players, dribbling while looking up, keeping the ball close to them)
- And many more fun activities—all with a soccer ball at their feet!
While these games may not look like professional soccer on TV, they are key to building foundational soccer skills, such as:
- Decision making
- Dribble fast or slow
- Turning and stopping with the ball
- Navigating Around Other Players
- Looking up
- Keeping the ball close to them
These basic skills are the building blocks of the game, and we aim to make learning them exciting and memorable for our youngest players.
Our Goal:
The most important objective of our Tots Program is to instill a love for the game in a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment. We focus on having fun, learning through play, and creating positive associations with soccer.
