3rd AND 4th GRADE (DIVISION 5) PROGRAM

This is an intown-only program (no traveling to other towns) with approximately 400 to 450 registrations annually.  It is a 2-hour combined clinic and game program for young players held on Saturdays at B.F. Middle School.  Players will be assigned to teams with a starting time that varies each week according to a rotating schedule.  The earliest start time is 9 am and, with few exceptions, the last session ends by 4 pm.

For the first 7 weeks of the program, players are expected to participate in a 1 hour clinic that will be held immediately prior to their weekly games. The clinics are designed to further develop the individual soccer skills introduced in the Grade 1 and 2 program.  The clinic also helps train the coaches with real skill and practice examples.   Please volunteer to coach.

Following the clinic, the teams disperse to small fields on site and participate in a game of 5v5 (five players against five players).  The 5v5 game provides each child with increased "touches of the ball".  Players are expected to participate in the clinics as well as the games.  

Players receive a shirt, socks and shorts to wear and keep.  Soccer shoes (molded plastic/rubber cleats only, no Football or Baseball style, please) are recommended.  Shin guards are mandatory.

Coaches and players will be notified of their team assignments during the summer. Please check our website for more information.
