FALL LITTLES SOCCER!

• Shin Guards

• Size 3 Soccer Ball

• Water bottle

Here are a few tips that you can follow to do your part in making your child's soccer experience a positive one:

• Bring your child to practice on time and stay at practice with them until they are finished. Kids love to show Mom and Dad how hard they can kick and how fast they can run.
   

• Coaches and Managers are volunteers!! They have been gracious enough to give up their time in order to provide a safe fun atmosphere in which your child can enjoy the game of soccer. Treat them with respect and appreciation, without their help your child would not be able to participate.
   

• ALWAYS be a good sport on the sidelines.  Remember they are just 6 yrs old and deserve to be cheered for their accomplishments, great and small. Win, lose it doesn't matter, soccer is your child's playtime, not performance time. No one keeps scores or maintains standings in the Kindergarten League!
   

• Don't out-coach the coach. Too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the soup, the same holds true for soccer. There should only be one person giving directions to the players, otherwise they just get confused and frustrated. LET THEM PLAY!
   

• Practice with your child at home. Dribble around the soccer ball in your own backyard, the kids will love it and you might even enjoy it a little too. Playing the game yourself will give you a greater appreciation for how challenging some of the skills are that your child is learning!
