Youth Soccer

Youth Soccer

The YMCA Youth Sports Program is designed to help children not only become skilled athletes but also grow as individuals. It’s a dynamic, age-specific program that ensures every child has the opportunity to play in a safe, exciting, and fun environment. We promote fair play, healthy competition, and encourage family participation in the process.

How are the coaches selected?
Great question! All of our coaches are dedicated volunteers. Some are YMCA staff members, others are parents who help coach their children’s teams, and many are community members who share our Y values. To ensure your child’s safety, every coach undergoes a background check and drug testing.

How often do teams practice?
Teams typically practice once or twice a week, with sessions lasting around one hour. We understand life can be busy, so we keep practices brief and effective. To help make your experience the best it can be, we provide coaches with resources and support throughout the season.

Can I stay and watch practice?
Of course! We highly encourage family involvement. In fact, our teams are always looking for Assistant Coaches. If you’re interested in helping out, we’d love to have you!

What equipment does my child need?
Here’s a breakdown of the required gear for each age group:

  • Soccer School (Ages 3-4)
    Players should wear soccer cleats, shin guards, and socks to cover the shin guards. This age group uses a size 3 soccer ball.

The game may end, but the work doesn’t stop!

After the Whistle is a YMCA soccer training program designed for players who want a little extra time on the ball during the season. These weekly sessions offer focused skill-building in a fun, supportive environment, giving young athletes the chance to improve their footwork, boost their confidence, and develop their game sense — all while staying active and engaged.

Led by experienced YMCA coaches, sessions will cover dribbling, passing, shooting, and small-sided games, with plenty of opportunities for personalized feedback and growth.
