3 & Under ( for children that will be 2 years old by the first game of each season)
Players will meet once a week on Saturday mornings to learn basic soccer fundamentals through playing fun, age appropriate skills based games. This will not be your typical “mommy and me” style program however, each player will need a loved one of at least 8 years old to assist them periodically. The primary focus is to introduce young players to the sport, get them use to the ball and over all just to have fun. They will meet at John Preece Park, on the U4 field for roughly 60minutes including water breaks.
Field time: 60 minutes
Required Equipment: solid black soccer socks, solid black shorts, jerseys, closed toed/ tennis shoes, size 1 soccer ball and a water bottle.

Each team will have the field for 60 minutes but only one team plays at a time. The first half of the match, players will work on footwork and scoring. The second half is designated for a team scrimmage. Players have the option to play, but are not required to play the entire time.
Scores are not kept and there is no tournament. All registered players will have the opportunity to have an individual and team photo taken and will receive a medal at the end of the season.
The primary focus is on the simplified basics. We want our players and families to have fun and learn the basics of soccer. This is not a mommy and me like program, parents are not to be on the pitch/ inside the cones unless they are asked and are registered as a JYSA volunteer with completion of the appropriate training.
Players must have their own water and keep it on the player side of the pitch to prevent delays.
We do need volunteer coaches who are designated to help run the activities. We also depend on willing family members to be active helping the players to learn and have fun.
Match Duration: 30 minutes including water breaks
