Kilgour Sports Boosters

Details

This is an informal program to introduce young children to the basics of soccer during several one-hour sessions on Friday evenings.  The program will include skill building exercises, running, games and short-sided scrimmages.  The program will start on Friday, September 5th and continue through Friday, October 10th. Parents are required to stay at the field.

Kilgour School has a wonderful soccer program affiliated with the Soccer Association for Youth (SAY); however, Kindergarteners do not start participation in the SAY program until the Spring season, so this introduction is intended to get children ready for SAY soccer. This program is not affiliated with SAY Soccer.  

The main emphasis is to have FUN. 

Volunteers Needed!

The Kindergarten Soccer program is parent run and cannot happen without your help.  You do not have to have any coaching experience. Volunteer activities include running drill stations, field set up and prep, and organizing the drills.  Additionally we are looking for someone who would be willing manage the overall Friday night sessions.  In coaching, as with parenting, the program advocates motivating with positive reinforcement when children do well.  Please look for positive things to discuss with your child about the program.   

Gear

Your young athlete will need a size-3 soccer ball, shin guards and athletic shoes to participate.  The shin guards should be covered with socks.  Soccer cleats are not required at this age.  This year we will be providing your child with a Kilgour soccer shirt they will be expected to wear for each Friday night session so we can equally divide the kids in separate groups.  Please indicate the shirt size for your child when you register.  Children cannot participate if they have casts or are wearing jewelry.
