About This Activity
Description
The soccer program is a co-recreational team sport for ages 9-10 years. Our philosophy is to introduce youth to the basic skills of soccer and encourage sportsmanship, and to promote equal participation and enjoyment in a noncompetitive environment.
This is an eight week program with two practices starting the week of April 22, before the six game season that starts on May 8.
There will be two practices prior to the first game and then one practice and one game a week. The one hour practices will be held on Tuesday or Thursday, depending on the coach's availability. Games will be played on Wednesdays at 7:30pm. All practices and games will be held at Encanto Park Sports Complex, 2121 N 15th Ave, Phoenix, AZ, 85007, on the ballfield just east of the parking lot.
Volunteer coaches are the key to a successful program.
Please contact us for coaching / volunteering information at 602-262-6542, 602-261-8011 or daniel.peters@phoenix.gov.
The coach's commitment will be to hold a practice once a week and coach one game per week. Prior to the season there are requirements for background checks, an online training through NAYS and a mandatory meeting. The total amount of hours for a couch during the season is around 24 hours for the ten-week program.
This season's meeting is Saturday, April 20, 2024, from 9:00am to 11:00am at the Special Operations Crew Room, 1802 W Encanto Blvd, Phoenix, AZ, 85007, on the south side of 15th Ave. opposite the State Fairgrounds. The crew room is located past the second chain link fence, on the right.
