Spring 2009 U5 Program –Must be born between 8/1/03 - 7/31/04.  The State Soccer Association (MSYSA) mandates that players that do not fall in this age group are NOT eligible to play. 

 

The Canton Soccer Club offers this introductory program for all U5 boys and girls. Registration for Spring 2009 will begin January 1, 2009 and end February 1, 2009.  Ryan Smith, a full-time coach for the Canton Soccer Club Select/Premier Program, is also the Director of the U5 program with the help of parent volunteers.   Ryan has put together an excellent curriculum for our parent coaches.  If you are interested in coaching your child's team, you may indicate so during the registration process.  The only requirement is that you must be Risk Management certified (background check through the MSYSA).

We try to place the children on teams according to what elementary school they will attend in the fall or what subdivision they reside in.   The program is held weekly for about 1 hour and usually runs 6-8 weeks depending on the weather. The first ½ hour is training then will conclude with scrimmaging another U5 team for the remaining time. The program is held on Sunday afternoons (around 1 or 2pm) at Independence Park.

 

• You will receive a call from a parent volunteer/coach by April 1st with further information.
• Rosters will be posted around April 1st.  You can login to your account at that point and it will show your child's team.  Coach contact information is listed under "Coaches."
  
• Teams are single gender.
• The next U5 League will begin in mid April and goes to mid June.
