 Program Overview

Dates: Friday Evenings, September 6th thru October 18th

Time: 6:00 – 7:00 PM

Place: Kilgour Soccer Field

Cost: $15 - Cost includes a Kilgour soccer shirt  

Note - Children must be enrolled in Kindergarten at Kilgour to participate.

 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.   Parents are encouraged to stay at the field to observe the activities, assist as needed, and socialize with other Kindergarten parents.

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. The idea of the program is to give children a love for an organized athletic activity.  In addition, we help them to learn to respect coaches and referees. Although soccer can be quite competitive, this program is not.  There will not be games against other schools.  The goal is to be able to play a full field scrimmage by the last day.   We will not keep score.   


Volunteers Needed!

We also need parent volunteers to help.  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 to 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.

If you have any questions please reach out to Sarah Roche and Justin Dobbs at kilgourboyssoccer@gmail.com
