Soccer is a lot more than a game. It develops a healthy lifestyle while promoting a positive self-esteem. It creates a mental and physical experience in ways only this "beautiful game" can produce.

Here at Universal Kids Soccer, we promote social interaction using fun and creative ways without pushing to be the best player, but having the best experience.

Soccer is a team sport and involves many of the skills children need to succeed in their development. The social interaction with one another helps in particularly kids who are shy and were not able to make school into a social place. Playing soccer teaches children the most important aspect of the game; learning how to communicate with one another respectfully and responsively.

* Note: Each program runs 8 sessions/weeks
