The goal of the FIRE Cadets is to teach fundamental soccer skills through a coaching method that emphasizes the development of your child’s physical abilities along with fostering a love for the game of soccer at an early age.

FIRE Cadets Level 1 - (3-4 year olds)

• Level 1 Cadets is an introduction to soccer and concentrates on eye-foot coordination, balance, dribbling, kicking, and lots of gross-motor movement. We will not play competitive games but instead will stress the aspect of having fun. All activities will focus on the mental and physical development of the child along with developing a love for the game.

FIRE Cadets Level 2 - (5-6 year olds)

• Level 2 Cadets is designed for the child who has little or no soccer experience. We work on developing each child’s ability to run with control and balance. We also work on kicking the ball, improving eye-foot coordination, and dribbling. This class has fun while learning to love the game through success on the field.

FIRE Cadets Level 3 - (5-6 year olds)

• Level 3 Cadets is the next step in the evolution of your young FIRE Cadet. Designed to challenge your child in the area of skill development games, about one-fourth of the program will be spent on small-sided (3V3) games. The remainder of our time will focus on technical development of individual players.

FIRE Cadets Level 4 - (7-8 year olds (4v4)

• Level 4 Cadets is an age appropriate class that blends in skill development with actual small-sided games. A lot of the activities will be working in groups of 2. At this age, the player begins to go from an internal focus to partner play. We will play on a small field to encourage lots of touches on the ball and build individual confidence on the ball.
