Soccer Shots: Frequently Asked Questions | North Houston Moms

WHAT IS SOCCER SHOTS?

Soccer Shots is a non-competitive, intro to soccer program for children ages 2-8. Our goal is to teach the foundational skills of soccer in a fun, encouraging environment. Many Soccer Shots players are joining their first organized team sport, and we aim to provide a remarkable experience where children build confidence and embrace fitness while having fun with their coach and friends!

 

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM MY SOCCER SHOTS SESSION?

Each of our weekly sessions incorporate a soccer skill—like dribbling and shooting, fun game, goal scoring, and a scrimmage. We also highlight a positive character word each session, such as respect, teamwork and appreciation. Parents receive a weekly email that summarizes each session, a mid-season player review report, and all children receive an end of season Soccer Shots medal.

 

WHAT TYPES OF PROGRAMS DO WE OFFER?

Soccer Shots offers three different programs to meet the developmental needs of children aged 2-8.

 

MINI | 2-3 Year Olds
Soccer Shots Mini is a high-energy program introducing children to fundamental soccer principles, such as using your feet, dribbling and the basic rules of the game. Through fun games, songs and positive reinforcement, children will begin to experience the joy of playing soccer and being active.

CLASSIC | 3-5 Year Olds (Pre-K)

Soccer Shots Classic utilizes creative and imaginative games to focus on basic soccer skills like dribbling, passing and shooting. We also highlight a positive character trait each session such as respect, teamwork and appreciation.

PREMIER | 5-8 Year Olds (K-2nd)

Soccer Shots Premier focuses on individual skill, fitness and sportsmanship, providing an opportunity for children to be challenged through fun games and team interaction. Children will also be introduced to competition in a developmentally appropriate manner.

 

WHAT MAKES SOCCER SHOTS UNIQUE?

Our coaching, curriculum, and communication set Soccer Shots apart from other youth sport programs!

Our coaches are the best trained in the business! We do not use parent volunteers (nor high school-aged coaches). You can feel confident that the person coaching your child at Soccer Shots has met our strict coaching standards (40+ hours of on-field training) and has been trained in the use of developmentally appropriate techniques. Our coaches not only love soccer, but they also have a passion for positively impacting children’s lives.

Our curriculum is developed in alignment with Texas early childhood education standards. Children will learn from a curriculum that is built for his/her age group.

We will always keep you informed on what your child is learning. In addition to weekly session summary emails, we provide a mid and end of season player review report. We are also committed to responding to questions in a timely, professional manner.

Programs are offered in childcare centers, preschools and schools, as well as public locations. Check with your school to find out if Soccer Shots is offered as an enrichment program.
