Soccer is a great choice for youth sports for many reasons. Because there is very little equipment needed, your investment as a parent isn’t a barrier to entry.  But more importantly, it’s a game with simple rules that children can grasp from an early age.

Our YMCA soccer program is a developmental league that meets the athlete where he or she is and builds their skills from there. Whether their first season is at age 4 or age 11, YMCA coaches will help them get in the game and enjoy their experience.

Playing organized sports is one of The Search Institute’s “Developmental Assets,” which are predictors for developing into a well-adjusted teen and adult.

The Foothills Area YMCA has two soccer seasons per year.
