Program Overview
Sprouts (Ages 5-8)
Welcome to the Sprouts Program, the ultimate launchpad for young soccer stars in Connecticut! Designed for 5 to 8-year-olds with development in mind, this flagship program is the perfect entry point for kids ready to take their first steps toward mastering the beautiful game. This pathway gives young players the chance to grow their skills in an engaging and supportive environment, all the Forge Facility.
Twice a week, our budding players embark on a dynamic soccer adventure:
- Weekday Sessions, Tuesdays & Thursdays: Players can choose one or two sessions each week, focusing on the essential skills of dribbling, passing, and receiving, and shooting. Training is built around fun, individual challenges and 1v1 situations, helping players learn how to apply their skills in real-game scenarios.
- Saturday Gameplay Series: Every Saturday morning, players will come together for our exciting 4v4 game format. These small-sided matches are designed to maximize touches on the ball and decision-making opportunities boosting both skill development and confidence. Parents also get a front-row seat to see how small-sided soccer builds creativity, awareness, and a love for the beautiful game.
With the Sprouts Program, players not only learn the game - they experience it in the best way possible! Watch your child grow, thrive, and fall in love with soccer from the very first kick
