This fun, fast-paced, non-competitive league coached by Starfire staff presents our youngest players with an exciting introduction to team soccer. Games are played on small indoor fields, encouraging children to develop ball control, an understanding of the game and the importance of teamwork. Micro league play is recommended to those who have at least one year of experience playing soccer, through our stars classes or a comparable program.

Each class consists of a 20 minute warm-up and training session at the beginning of each session. The kids will be learning skills like dribbling, passing, shooting, and field-placement to make each 30-minute game more successful. In conjunction with recommendations from U.S. Soccer’s Player Safety Campaign statement, we will not be practicing or providing training instruction on heading the soccer ball in an effort to limit head injuries.

The spring session is currently underway, and all classes are full. Summer begins June 23rd and registration opens May 8th.
