Super Soccer Stars | Washington, DC Super Soccer Stars

Super Soccer Stars teaches the fundamentals in a fun, non-competitive, educational environment. Our unique curriculum uses positive reinforcement and a low child-to-coach ratio to make sure each child feels supported and confident in his or her own abilities, allowing kids to improve at their own rate.

No matter their age, Super Soccer Stars has specific and progressive lesson plans built to your child’s developmental needs. Many of our program ages overlap so that you and your child can be comfortable with the level of play during your session. Here is an overview of our Super Soccer Stars program offerings:

12 - 24 Month Olds

Parent & Me

Introduce your toddler to our parent participation movement program through our fun, physical learning experience. Every 40 minute toddler class helps promote social awareness, gross motor skills and cognitive development. Coaches will provide individual attention, positive reinforcement, and will play engaging original music to develop pre-soccer skills that will have your toddler learning to balance, run, kick and play – all while having a blast!

2 - 3 Year Olds

Parent Participation

Soccer classes at this age are an exciting physical learning experience allowing your child to improve their natural ability in a fun and engaging way, with aspects of parent participation incorporated into the curriculum. Activities are presented using imagery relatable to children at this age to support learning about the body and ball awareness. The primary focus of each 40-minute class is to introduce physical activities, rich language exposure, and movements such as running, hopping and jumping. Classes include fun dribbling and shooting activities to teach positive social interaction and the basic skills of soccer!

3 - 4 Year Olds

The focal point at this age group is for your child to be comfortable with the ball by further developing soccer skills such as dribbling, shooting and the introduction of passing. 45 minute classes include partner activities to promote sharing, listening, respect and cooperation. Physical activities include dynamic exercises like moving with pace, changing directions and lateral agility. This class is the perfect fit for older 3 to young 4 year olds.

4 - 5 Year Olds

At older 4 to 5 years, your child will become comfortable with the ball by developing soccer skills such as dribbling, shooting and the introduction of passing. 45 minute classes include dynamic activities which involve dribbling technique and moves to promote confidence with the ball. The primary focus for this age group is body movement with the ball. Your child will be introduced to juggling and other skill building activities. The concepts of teammates and teamwork are also introduced.

5 - 7 Year Olds

The goal of the program at this stage is to improve children’s elementary capacity through fun games, technical skill development and group activities. The primary focus is to increase familiarity of space to enable children to develop team skills in a game environment. Emphasis is placed on awareness of teammates constantly so that these skills can be easily transferred into the soccer game. Every 5-7 Soccer Stars class includes ball activities with high repetitions to promote muscle memory that builds confidence and ball control skills.

7 - 12 Year Olds

In our oldest age groups, players will improve their creative capacity through technical skill development and competition. These 60-minute training sessions allow for freedom of expression with the ball—this vital concept is emphasized with the introduction of 1v1 dribbling and defending games. The addition of opponents allows the player to make decisions under pressure. High repetition ball control activities help each player become more proficient with the ball.

In-Person Classes

30 – 45 minutes of soccer filled fun in a safe and controlled environment for ages 3-10. Coaches work with 4-10 children, depending on local guidelines, to build skills and create a team atmosphere while physically distancing.

Virtual Classes

Fully interactive 30 – 45 minute virtual classes meet once a week through Zoom. Lessons are designed to play in small spaces – a 5x5ft area is all you need. Assigned activities keep the fun going after class, like building your own soccer goal box, and coloring sheets.

Testimonials

“One of the hardest things about parenting during a pandemic is dealing with what has been taken away from my kids and constantly trying to substitute. Everyday feels like a choice between safety & happiness. I treasure Saturday morning soccer lessons with my son. It is one of the few moments where I can see him smile, grow and be challenged and still have some peace of mind.”

“Our coach has been following the safety procedures exactly! He stays 6 feet apart, wears a mask the whole time, and makes sure the kids are socially distanced since this is a group that hasn’t hung out with each other before. The program has been amazing, and it is great to see how Soccer Stars has adapted during these times.”

“We love Super Soccer Stars! From the virtual classes that we attended in the fall to the online classes so generously offered during the shelter-in-place, we have seen so much soccer skill-building and joy in the past several months! Every coach we’ve met has been engaging, kind, and focused, and this five-year-old actually wants to practice between classes! Thank you so much Super Soccer Stars to bringing some light and connection during these tough times.”

“I haven’t been able to find an on-line exercise that has been engaging for my child. During his virtual class, he was totally engaged. Did the drills himself and practiced for about 20 minutes after. THANK YOU!!!”
