5th/6th Grade Boys Soccer

The first practice for 5th/6th is on Wednesday, Sept. 25th from 2:30-4:00 on the West Playground

I will have Clinic/Games on Saturdays.
The format they told me in the meeting was that each school would have an 80 minute time slot with three other schools.
The time slot will be the same each week.
During the time slot students will stat with a game then work on skills and finish with a game. They will play two games and work on skills.
No standing will be kept.
This program is to focus on the players learning game play and skills. NOT A COMPETETIVE LEAGUE.

Practices: Wednesdays - 2:30- 4:00 - Starting on Wednesday, Sept. 25th
Clinic/Games: Will be held on Saturdays Time and Location: TBD

5th/6th: Clinic/Games - Sept 28th. { Optional - AYSO Meet and Greet}
Oct. 5th,12th,19th and 26th. { Clinic/Games}


Equipment: Players will need shin guards.
Soccer cleats are recommended.
Water bottle needed for practices and game day.
Black Shorts for Game Day.
Red Thorp shirts: If your son has his shirt from last year he can wear it and doesn't need to order a new one.
I will be sending out a form to order a shirt if your son doesn't have one from last year.

Thanks,
