Spring 2025 Juniors - Recreation level Soccer

The Blythewood Soccer Juniors Developmental Program is an in-house (non-travel) experience for players ages 4 to 14 (Born between 2011-2020). The program focuses on building fundamental soccer skills in a fun and supportive environment.

Program Details:

Training: Teams will train one day a week for 8 weeks with a professional, background-checked coach from Coerver Coaching. This age-appropriate technical training ensures players develop strong soccer foundations.

Games: Games are played on Friday evenings, with small-sided games (3v3, 4v4, or 5v5) that maximize player touches and focus on skill development. Parents and volunteers are encouraged to support and cheer on players. Typically, players will have 6-8 games (depending on weather and field availability).

Team Organization: Each team will have a parent manager/coach who, with the help of club staff and volunteers, will facilitate games and assist with organizing. The emphasis is on fun and teamwork rather than competition.

Age Groups:

U5-U6: Born 01/01/19–12/31/20
U7: Born 01/01/18–12/31/18
U8: Born 01/01/17–12/31/17

We are excited to build upon the success of last year by introducing structured teams with dedicated coaches for players in the U7-U14 age groups. This approach will ensure a more cohesive and focused development experience. Additionally, coaches will have the opportunity to schedule optional extra practice sessions, and we will offer comprehensive support and resources for new volunteer coaches to enhance their coaching skills.

Volunteer Opportunities:

We need volunteer coaches for U8-U14! No prior soccer experience is required for younger age groups, and training will be provided.

Volunteer Roles:

Team Manager/Coach: Organize and communicate with players and families, assist during training sessions and games. Must complete a background check and abuse awareness course.
Game Day Staff: Help with field setup and game day support.
Referees/Game Managers: Facilitate games for older age groups. Volunteers should have a basic understanding of soccer rules.

Practice and Registration Notes:

Practices will be scheduled at 5pm, 6pm, or 7pm based on age groups. Please indicate availability when registering.
Teams practice once a week with Coerver Coaches, with optional additional practices for U8 and older age groups.
Parent/Coaches are encouraged to assist during weekly practices. Training support will be provided.

A minimum of 12 registered players is required for each age group. If there are not enough players, refunds will be issued, or age groups may be combined to ensure teams can play.
