Coach Ken Soccer

Coach Ken Soccer is a recreational soccer program that teaches our soccer players both technical and tactical skills. Our curriculum is progressive and ever-evolving. Using a wide variety of fun exercises, we consistently teach kids new skills to challenge them to reach their full potential.

Philosophy:

We believe people love what they are good at, and good training is ultimately more important than raw talent.

Our Core Values:

Our four core values: Consistency, Knowledge, Skills, and Advancement.

Consistency:

We guarantee your child will have the same good, professional coaches who know them personally and can thus help them best learn and develop their soccer and life skills.

Knowledge:

Our coaches are trained to correctly teach soccer skills to different age-groups. They understand how different ages and kids learn, what and how to teach while maintaining a positive attitude and an environment where kids can experience, experiment, and learn skills that put them at the top of their age group.

Skills:

We teach our soccer players both technical and tactical skills. Good soccer technique is having good ball and body control. Our players learn how to receive the ball, control it, and how to pass, shoot, and defend correctly. We especially focus on dribbling fast and changing direction and we teach advanced moves and fakes.

Soccer tactics are about good decision-making and teamwork. We help our players recognize how to utilize the techniques they have learned. We coach our players to be able to read and understand the game for themselves and to strategize with teammates to solve the challenges they face during play.

Advancement:

Our program is personalized and individualized to help each kid develop as a player. Coaches are experienced at quickly identifying each player’s strengths and weaknesses and therefore are able to create programs that address each player’s specific needs.

Our curriculum is progressive and ever-evolving. Using a wide variety of fun exercises, we consistently teach kids new skills to challenge them to reach their full potential.

About Classes:

Players start with 25-30 minutes of ball skills where each player has a ball at their feet – concentrating on one skill per day (like speed dribbling or step-overs or passing or shooting, etc.) and reinforced by fun games; 5-10 minutes of agility focused on improving the player’s abilities to make soccer movements forward, sideways, backward, jumping, etc. Then we do 1v1 for about 10 mins and finally, we end with a 3v3 or 4v4 soccer match for 10-15 mins. We do not allow goalies for players under 6 years old except on shooting lesson day. Players are divided into groups by age and ability.

About Rec League:

We use Rec League to introduce kids to real team soccer with consistent teams, teammates, rules, and ref-coaches. Matches will be small-sided and players will receive uniforms around week 3-4 once teams are established. The game format is 4v4 or 5v5 with players rotating positions to gain experience as the goalie, defender, and attacker positions.

About Camps:

Camps are designed to keep players involved in soccer even during holiday breaks, learning the basics of soccer with fun, enthusiastic coaching, and age-appropriate skills. Click here to view more information about our soccer camp schedule and structure.

No Tolerance Policy:

Physical violence, verbal abuse, and spitting directed toward other players and coaches will not be tolerated. A cancellation and refund to the registrant for the remaining classes will be processed in the event of such.
