Program description:
ICSF Early Kickers Spring Program is open to boys and girls, ages 3 and 4 years old. Our goal is to introduce these young players to the game by creating engaging activities on a soccer field. Activities provided are age appropriate, and instructional concepts are both physically and mentally stimulating. We encourage all players to participate with a positive attitude and have lots of fun! Sessions will be run by ICSF Club Staff.
Our program starts with an introduction to soccer using the concept of physical literacy. At such a young age, this may be the first time players are participating in an organized activity with or without their parents. It’s important for us to motivate all players to participate in the activities without making it too overwhelming. Simple movements such as running, jumping, hopping and kicking are all basic movements that will help give players the confidence they need to participate in more activities and sports.
