SPRING SOCCER TOTS ⚽👶🏻
This program is managed by Hood River Valley Parks + Recreation District
SOCCER TOTS OVERVIEW
Who Can Sign Up: 3 - 5 yrs olds (not in kindergarten)
Program Description
The Soccer Tots program is designed for children 3 to 5 years old. Five-year-old Kindergarteners are asked to sign up for the Mini World Cup. Soccer Tots’ mission is to provide a positive soccer experience for each young player. To accomplish this, we have adopted a philosophy focuses on fun and development rather than keeping score and winning. Soccer Tots is a theme-based program where players will be introduced to the basics: no hands, dribbling, ball control, passing and scoring through fun games! The players will be placed into small groups, each player will have a ball and will work with one volunteer coach.
Tentative Session Dates + times May 1 - 29 (Wednesdays) / 5:30 - 6:30 pm
Location Hood River County School District fields
