Choosing the Right Soccer Class for Your Child
It's important to remember that children need lots of time to develop basic skills like balance, muscle control, body coordination and more. That's why it's equally important to register your child for the session that matches his or her age group - particularly for our youngest students.

The Soccer Learning Center requires proof of age for all new students as part of our application process. In order to participate in our soccer programs, your child must be of class age on or before the first day of the selected class session. If you certify that your child is of class age during registration and then fail to produce credible verification, you will forfeit 100% of your tuition payment.
