Laurelhurst Soccer Club
Kinder Kickers Spring Program (Pre-K to Kindergarten)
Laurelhurst Soccer Club promotes the game of youth recreational soccer
through player development and coach education in a safe, inclusive, affordable and fun environment.
Programs
Our programs are open to children of all levels and experience. Each year, we offer our Spring Program (April-May), Summer Camps (June-July) and Fall Program (August-October) for players Pre-K - 8th Grade.
Pre-K & Kindergarten players participate in our Kinder Kickers Program (U5-U6) which is comprised of fun, weekly sessions on Friday evenings that include activities and games that build technical foundations of soccer.
1st-8th Grade players participate in our U7-U14 Program (see below) which includes games through the PYSA League. It's a great fit for beginners, as well as those looking to continue to develop their skills in a fun, encouraging environment. Players are divided into teams by gender/grade and often have opportunities to play with other kids from their class at school. Players do not need to live in the Laurelhurst neighborhood, or attend Laurelhurst Elementary to join our club.
