Soccer Stars

 

MISSION STATEMENT

Soccer Star's Mission is to provide our special needs athletes with a program that enables them to participate as fully as possible in soccer. By matching our players with a “buddy” we also provide the kind of community support and friendship that players would normally find in organized sports.  We are committed to providing the very best educational, social, and sports experience possible for our athletes and their families. Because we want the entire family to be involved and benefit from their child’s involvement in our program, a Parent Hospitality Area with simple refreshments is provided at each game, allowing parents to watch their child learn and grow while also providing an opportunity to relax and meet other parents.  Advancing the personal development of any child through team participation and friendship is an important step along the road to success and happiness.

 

WHO

We coach special needs athletes who are Monroe/Jamesburg residents age 4 and up who want to learn a new recreational sport with positive coaching support.

 

PROGRAM OBJECTIVES

  • form four teams of players and match them with one buddy and two adults acting as supervisors per group
  • our players will be exposed to the basics of the game and learn qualities such as teamwork and good sportsmanship
  • teach the basics of proper soccer play to prevent injuries and aid in conditioning
  • teach good sportsmanship and adaptive skills that will enable the soccer player to more fully participate in a recreational manner (IE:  gym class setting or community recreational programs)
  • finish the season with a trophy day and award certificates for the volunteers’ participation
