Class Descriptions
Bunnies
Bunnies classes introduce toddlers to soccer with games that allow them to run, play as a group and kick a ball. Geared toward a toddler’s unique way of learning, they learn balance and coordination.
- 50-minute class
- Parent participation is required
- Child/coach ratio: 15:1 (with parents on field)
Thumpers
Thumpers and their parents play organized games together to develop listening skills, balance, cooperation, sharing, ball skills and foot-eye coordination. Thumpers is the ideal next step for Bunnies veterans who are not yet old enough for the Hoppers level, and a perfect introduction to LiL’ Kickers for new players.

Cottontails
Cottontails is designed for children who are ready for more of a challenge than a Thumpers class, but who are not quite ready to be on the field without a parent or caregiver. The Cottontails curriculum is designed to build fundamental skills such as balance, coordination, and ball kicking in addition to helping build a sense of independence. As children progress through the session and become ready for more independence, parents can choose to transition to a less active role in the class.

Scrimmages focus on building teamwork and helping players understand how to apply skills in different situations. Some non-competitive soccer games are introduced.
