Program Details
Soccer
We have been doing recreational soccer for over 14 years and know that in a recreational program, players come in with no skills or knowledge of the game, some skills and a little knowledge of the game or pretty good skills but not enough knowledge of the game to use their skills to the best advantage of their team. With this being said, we found that our soccer program was not allowing the individual development each player might need at their level of play. We want to do more to meet the needs of these players. We have transformed our soccer program into a twelve week program that specializes in training basic and advanced skills, knowledge of rules, and strategic team play. Our trainers will be certified referees or certified coaches. The trainers have called many games in their careers and can easily spot what a player needs to help them be successful at soccer.This Soccer program runs in the spring and fall and accepts children from 3 to 13 years of age. Our age matrix is as follows, for Spring soccer your age is considered, as of Jan. 1st, and Fall soccer is, as of June 1st. Our intramural program trains and plays on Saturdays at the Helton Nature Park Sports Fields on County Road 128 in Wilson County, Texas. We try to have training sessions and games done by or before 12 noon or before it gets too hot. The first 6 weeks consist of 1.5 hours of soccer training. The next 5 weeks are games only and an end of season Soccer Tournament. We do not have a tournament in the Kinder Developmental League. We depend on Volunteer Parent Coaches and include them in the training sessions. Soccer equipment needed are shin guards, a soccer ball (3-7 yrs old, size 3) (8-10 yrs old, size 4) (11-13 yrs old, size 5), and a pair of black shorts for games. ACYP provides the shirt, socks, and a lot of learning fun. The registration fee is $115 for the first child with discounts for siblings. Limited scholarships are available for children who qualify and we can set up payment plans for the multi-child family. Call us to see if your child is eligible.
