Overview
Our 1st & 2nd Grade Program bridges the gap between beginner soccer and competitive play. This coed program focuses on improving fundamental skills—dribbling, passing, positioning, and teamwork—while introducing light competition through organized 5v5 games.

Player Development Pathway
This program is a great next step for players coming from the Kindergarten level, offering a structured but fun way to grow their game awareness. Players will begin to understand positions, formations, and game flow in a friendly, low-pressure competitive format.
Some teams may also participate in the Club-to-Club PDI Program, which provides a development platform for non-travel-aged players. Participation is determined by each coach.
