SPARTAN KINDERS is a program designed for young children from 3 years to 5 years of age. Through the use of fun and games, exercise is naturally incorporated to increase the physical activity of each player as they begin to explore their own capabilities. All sessions focus on developing motor skills, promoting physical fitness, encouraging team spirit, instilling self-confidence, and having fun.
Our program will be delivered by certified trainers with New Jersey Youth Soccer and National Youth licensed coach providing assistance. Our goal is to maintain a coach to player ratio of 12:1 so that we can maximize the development helping each child reach their full potential. Spartan Kinders is a community based kiddie soccer program run during the Fall, Winter and Spring seasons.
The following is our mission philosophy:
1. SMILING KIDS: This is not a high intensity professional training session, it is a bunch of kids working on simple skills. If they enjoy it, they will want to come back next week. This does not mean we will let everyone goof off and just run crazy but we do want to have fun.
2. DEVELOP A SENSE OF TEAMWORK: This is a wonderful life lesson that children need to be taught at a young age. Our coaching staff will encourage players to share the ball and work together.
3. MAKE FRIENDS: We encourage bonding between players, coaches and families.
4. DEVELOP BASIC SOCCER SKILLS: Most players have just started playing soccer. We feel that players will develop by continuing to touch the ball and by keeping active in small groups. No one wants to stand in long lines waiting to do something - they just want to do. The main skills we will be developing are dribbling, passing, receiving, striking, and positioning.
Our program was created by our coaches and supported by certified trainers. We will strive to maintain a coach to player ratio is 12:1 so that we can maximize the development of each child to their full potential. Spartan Kinders is a community based youth soccer program run during the Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer seasons.
