Martin United has two youth U4 thru U8 soccer programs located in Jensen Beach and Palm City
FOR PLAYER AGES: 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 (4U Thru 8U)
Through small-sided games and one on one coaching, our Micro Soccer program provides children as young as 3 years old with the opportunity to have fun as they play and learn the game of soccer.
Participants in our Jensen Beach and Palm City “Micro” programs will learn an understanding of the basic skills sets that are needed to play the game of soccer. We hope, through fun, problem solving games that players will start to develop these skill sets that are required to participate. The small sided games in a “play/practice/play” structure are developmentally appropriate for these players to understand what to do when they have (individual possession) or do not the have the ball (on the same team or as an opponent).
