Instructional Soccer Program
The Instructional Soccer program runs Sundays, starting on September 6, 2026, and running for eight consecutive weeks, concluding on October 25, 2026. The program begins at 9:00 AM. We welcome TK, K and first grade children (must turn five by September 1, 2027).
All sessions take place at Archbishop Riordan High School on Sundays.
The field is synthetic, allowing play to occur during inclement weather.
Our goal for the children is to experience the sport of soccer in a caring and nurturing way. We aim for the children to learn sportsmanship, teamwork, and, most importantly, having fun participating in sports.
Children are taught fundamentals at each level, with a clear progression path each week.
Below is a sample of the Soccer Program
9:00 am - 10:00 am
Skill Stations Rotation (3 groups, rotate every 10 minutes)
Divide the team into 3 equal groups. One coach/parent helper at each station. Rotate groups clockwise after each 10-minute block (quick 30-second transition).
Station 1: Dribbling & Foot Control
Station 2: Passing & Receiving
Station 3: Shooting & Scoring
10:00 am - 10:30 am
Scrimmage / Game Time (30 minutes)
Split the team into 2 equal teams. Assign one team to each side of the field (use small goals or cones).
Each player gets plenty of touches on the ball. Coaches help with positioning, encourage quick passes, and remind kids to support teammates.
Play 4v4 or 5v5 (depending on numbers) with frequent substitutions so everyone stays active. No goalkeepers needed at this age — focus on outfield play and fun.
Additional Notes:
Each session will include warm-up and cool-down periods.
Adjustments will be made based on the group’s skill level and comfort.
Emphasis will always be on fun, encouragement, and building confidence!
Watch your young athlete gain confidence and coordination in a supportive, playful environment!
