Hartford Lions Youth Soccer Program
Our organization aims at leveling the playing field for all regardless of race, gender, religion, or socio-economic status at a feasible rate. Our program serves families who have children between the ages of 3 - 14. Ages 3-5 are considered part of the Junior Lions Program, ages 6-9 fall under the Lion's Cub program, and athletes ages 10 - 14 are known as the Lions Program. Each age group clinic session lasts 6 weeks.
The Junior Lions Program is focused on dribbling, passing, trapping, scoring and balance as well as the concepts of teamwork and cooperation. Throughout the process junior lions will be introduced to the ideas of sportsmanship and team play.
The Lions Cub program focuses on the development of our young soccer players. This program consists of 6 classes focusing on each of the following skills: dribbling, passing, and shooting.
