Our Philosophy

There is a purpose and a reason for everything we do at Soccer Shots. The foundation for these purposes and reasons come from our own love of soccer and our own appreciation for the positive character traits we’ve developed through participation in the game. Our commitment to excellence, quality, and safety are considered when making Director and Instructor selections and are woven into our national curriculum and program training materials. All Soccer Shots participants are treated with dignity, respect, and care and are expected to treat each other the same way. Sportsmanship, teamwork, good attitudes, obedience, and understanding of the concepts and rules of soccer take precedence over competition and winning. Mission: Our mission is to provide your child with creative, simple play activities which will enable your child to exercise and have fun with the world’s most popular game - soccer! Curriculum: The Soccer Shots curriculum was first developed nearly fifteen years ago by several professional soccer players who had extensive youth soccer coaching experience. The curriculum places a high emphasis on both character development and soccer skill development. The curriculum is constantly being adjusted and perfected and has been proven successful on thousands of children throughout the United States. The Program: Soccer Shots sessions are age-appropriate and are led by trained Soccer Shots instructors. Each 30 to 40 minute weekly session is held at your day care or preschool site.
