Pre-K / K levels are non-competitive and a great place to start! Soccer is the perfect introductory sport.
Our Pre-K and Kindergarten level programs are for the joy of the sport and to get kids out on the field and having fun.
Teams are balanced so that there is about an even number of boys and girls. We try to place a few children from each school on a team and each team's average age is reviewed to ensure no team is too old or too young.
Coaches
Coaches are volunteers and are parents of players. Please consider volunteering with the WYSA program by signing-up while registering. For more information, please contact the Pre-K/K age director at [email protected].
