Mighty Kickers - Little Kickers

Age 3½ years to 5 years

Frequency Weekly

Each Mighty Kickers class is packed with fast-paced games, soccer fundamentals, and plenty of high-fives. It’s where kids start to think like a team, follow real soccer game structure, and kick with purpose. The fun is still front and center, but now, it comes with more confidence, more control, and the beginning of real match play.

Mighty Kickers Focus

In Mighty Kickers, our soccer coaches focus on something we call play, practice, and understanding. To kids, it’s just playtime. To us, it’s soccer training in disguise.

Kids don’t just learn how to move the ball, they begin to understand when and why. We also introduce teamwork and basic match play, so players start learning what it means to be part of something bigger than themselves.
