MFC Juniors
MFC Juniors is designed to be a fun, multiple session program held each spring and fall for 4 year olds to kindergartners. One of the main goals of the Juniors Program is to provide a safe, inclusive and structured environment so that our youngest athletes can be encouraged and grow in their first organized soccer experience.
To allow all boys and girls opportunities to dribble, pass, and shoot, players will scrimmage one another in a 2 v 2 or 3 v 3 format with multiple goals. Thre are no formal teams or rosters. Players will receive a penny and join a new team as soon as they arrive each week. Our MFC Juniors staff will oversee the 2 v 2 and 3 v 3 games to help demonstrate, encourage, and guide the athletes as they play.
About halfway though each session, The program leader(s) will bring several groups together for activities that will help introduce soccer skills and allow the player to have opportunity to practice. Activites are often familiar to children with a fun soccer twist.
