Capital Area Jr Nationals

DO YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO LEARN & PLAY SOCCER?

Junior Nationals is a recreational soccer program designed for youth born between the years of 2019 - 2011 to learn, develop and apply their soccer skills. Our training program focuses on teaching the fundamentals of soccer by giving players lots of opportunities to dribble, pass and shoot the ball. 

Each session is designed to improve your child's technical ability and confidence with the ball and is led by experienced, professional soccer trainers who are passionate about player development.  Our coaches focus on creating fun, energetic environments that provide technical repetition with the ball at the player’s feet. 

At Junior Nationals, we create a fun atmosphere of learning where your child can develop and grow to love the beautiful game of soccer!  #JuniorNationals, #LearnDevelopPlay!
