Established around the success of many years of coaching our youngest children, we feel that the structure and application of this specifically designed City Juniors program is unique, exciting, & unrivaled.
The City Juniors program serves as a bridge between recreational & competitive soccer. It enables a smooth transition between the two levels of soccer and aims to instill a passion for sports, specifically soccer, within our children at the youngest age groups.
