U4 Little Comets Soccer Program - Ignite Your Child's Love for the Game!

Introduce your little one to the beautiful game with Culpeper Soccer Club's Little Comet Soccer Program!

This exciting program, designed for our youngest soccer stars, focuses on fun, engaging activities that develop fundamental skills and a love for the sport. Our curriculum emphasizes four key areas:

• Me and my ball: Developing comfort and control with the ball.
• Me and space: Learning spatial awareness and movement on the field.
• Me and my friends: Fostering teamwork and social interaction.
• Me and the game: Introducing basic game concepts and rules.
  

What to Expect:

Participants will enjoy a variety of games and activities that incorporate essential soccer skills like dribbling, passing, and kicking, as well as fundamental movement skills such as starting, stopping, and changing direction. We'll also weave in classic childhood games like Tag, Follow the Leader, Hide and Seek, and Red Light Green Light to keep things fun and engaging!

Parent Participation is Key! Parents will actively participate alongside their child in all activities, creating a wonderful bonding experience and supporting their child's development.

Program Information:

Players will receive a Little Comets jersey at the first session.  We encourage players to wear black shorts, black socks and soccer cleats. 
Cleats are recommended but not required. Tennis shoes are acceptable.  Shin guards are not required. CSC will provide soccer balls for the session.  Due to the young age of players, it is possible to attend and have a trial go but you must first register online.
