Kicks for kids

Soccer for all kids kindergarten through sixth grade has started. The teams will be formed from three age groups as in the past and this year practice will be on Monday and Wednesday. Practice will be at the usual place on the fields adjacent to the west side of Saratoga Elementary School.

Practice for K-2 will be from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., all other ages will be 5:30 to 7 p.m. The last day of play will be June 6 when a parent/child game will be held. After that game, a pot luck picnic will be held at the field about 6:30 p.m. A letter will be sent to all parents ahead of time with more information on the game and pot luck.

A registration form needs to be filled out before a child can play. The cost for soccer this year is $25 which covers the cost of equipment and liability insurance. Please make checks payable to Saratoga Youth Soccer.

Shin guards will be provided for all players who do not own their own; the only requirement is appropriate footwear: soccer cleats or tennis shoes.

Coaches are needed and no experience is necessary. Please contact Lisa Burton at 326-8338 if you can help.
