What to Expect at a Soccer Buddies Class
Thinking of joining the most fun soccer lessons in Colorado Springs? We’d love to have you join us! Find out all about Soccer Buddies classes below.
Soccer Buddies is a weekly sports program in six locations around Colorado Springs. We teach ball skills to kids aged 15 months to 12 years and we also teach so much more!
At Soccer Buddies, we grow confident, positive young people too! Our Soccer Buddies kids benefit in every aspect of a child’s life, from physical health to mental, emotional, and social wellbeing.
What do I do when I arrive at class?
Try to arrive 10 minutes early, especially for your first class. A coach will come and greet you and make you feel welcome. We might have a quick chat about what you enjoy, if you’ve played ball sports before and let you know where everything is at the location. Feel free to ask any questions or let us know if there’s anything you’re nervous about. Then, it’s time to play!
What happens in a Soccer Buddies class?
ALL THE FUN!
We start class with warm up games. Then we will practice ball skills. This may be individually, in pairs or in small groups. We have loads of balls out on the field at once, so you won’t be waiting long, and you’ll get loads of chances to practice and learn.
Each week you’ll learn different games and skills. We mix it up and have a ton of fun!
What should I wear to a Soccer Buddies class?
There is no need to buy any special clothes or shoes. Just come in comfy clothes you can run around in: shorts or sweats, a T-shirt, and closed-in running shoes.
Do I need any special gear or prior experience?
Not at all! We keep our classes budget friendly so you don’t need to buy any special gear or balls. All you need is closed-in running shoes so you don’t hurt your feet when kicking the ball.
Anyone can join a Soccer Buddies class regardless of experience with ball sports. Our coaches are experts at helping you make progress from whatever level you are at, from a complete beginner to an experienced soccer player. If you are an experienced player, that’s great! We will work with you to meet your goals even if you are in a class with a wide range of skills.
How many kids will be in the class?
There could be up to 14 children in each class. We have a range of ages and skills on the field at each time along with multiple coaches.
It may look a bit busy at first, but we break up into groups and make sure everyone gets lots of time with the ball.
Is there anything else I need to know before I come to a Soccer Buddies class?
All we ask is that you come with a positive attitude and are ready to have fun! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact our office or talk to a coach.
If your child is a little nervous or not yet ready to join in, don’t worry! Our experienced coaches are great at coaxing kids into playing and giving them a nudge in the right direction without going too fast.
Your child will be running around and kicking the ball in no time!
