Let’s kick it! Spring is here and that means it is time for the beautiful game to return to the Ruby C. Hunt YMCA! We are offering Little Kicks soccer for male and female athletes ages three to five.

We will have a parent meeting on March  4th, 2025 in the Ruby C. Hunt Library at 6:30 PM.

Our goals:

Character Development:

Through intentional devotion, prayer time, and the lessons taught through the game we hope to develop good character in each child and teen in our program. We promote and strive to instill sportsmanship, respect, discipline, kindness, and joyfulness in each of our participants. We select coaches who have these characteristics and want to develop them in their players. Our mission is not to develop good athletes, but to develop good people.

Community Building:

This program aims to create an environment where participants can build a community through their teammates and opponents. We also strive to create a space where parents and coaches can build community with each other and across our county. We want this to feel like more than just a flag football season. We want this to be an experience where new friends can be met and communities formed!

Sport Competence:

We want kids to learn about the sports they enjoy and feel confident enough to play them. We want our participants to leave with a fundamental knowledge of the sport and how to play it. As participants continue in the program, we strive to challenge them more to expand this knowledge and build on their foundation. This feeds into our real mission in this area, for kids to love sports/physical activity. Being physically active is an extremely important aspect of one’s health and because of this, we aim to promote physical activity for life through our sports programs.
