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 2018 - 2010. These young athletes will learn and develop soccer skills such as dribbling, passing and shooting! Each session is led by professional soccer trainers that have experience in teaching the fundamentals of soccer. Not only are they skilled in communicating soccer techniques, but they also create a fun, welcoming environment where learning can take place.
The Junior Nationals program may vary slightly in each area but they will all include age-appropriate instruction on at least one day per week, and players will receive small-sided game experience during training sessions to try out their new skills in a challenging and fun environment. In addition, some areas include actual game experience on a second day each week. More specific details are available on each location's website page.
Most importantly, these programs incorporate some “fun” to enhance the learning experience for your children.
