*At the Summer Festival, 8U “Fives” teams will play 5v5. Teams will be afforded the full experience, food trucks, medals, and a fun soccer experience for these young players.
Provide fun, energetic, introductory program for these crucial ages.
Retain players at 9U that are better prepared with a better developed skillset.
8U soccer should be its own brand and should not be a mini-version of older-aged soccer.
Support clubs by having a standards-driven experience for these young players.
Referee mentoring and development opportunities for first-year or second-year referees.
