Through practices and games, youth will learn passing, shooting, scoring, heading, teamwork, and sportsmanship. Youth will also be introduced to the rules of the game in a fun and entertaining way in a positive structured environment. Games and practices are held throughout each week from September 21 to November 28, 2009.
