Evergreen Soccer Experience

Evergreen Soccer Experience (ESE) is a program designed to teach children age appropriate beginner skills and introduce team sports in a fun interactive way . Although we are highly soccer focused, this program incorporates skills from many sports as well as fun outdoor fitness related activities. Our goal is to help your children learn the love of sports, want to come to practice, look forward to spending time with friends and develop motivation as the start to a long endeavor into sports.

 

What skills do we work on?

  • Technical: Understand the basic interaction with the soccer ball and to know the most basic rules of the sport – to not use their hands, boundaries of the field, direction of play, and to become familiar with the concept of a game. Dribble-Pass-Shoot

​​

  • Physical​: Develop strength, endurance, flexibility, speed. Learn how our muscle work and what it means to live a healthy lifestyle. Coordination-Control-Agility

​​

  • Social/Emotional​: Grasp important life lessons such as the value of respecting teammates and coaches, listening during instruction, how to play as a team, and motivation. Confidence-Teamwork-Attention

​​

Our goal is to inspire the sport of soccer through the encouraging and fun environment experienced within our program.

 

Who are the Coaches?

Head Coach Mallory Pace played college soccer, has years of experience coaching youth soccer teams, was a former Crossfit trainer/Competitive Athlete and works with young children in her current profession as a Speech Language Pathologist. Mallory believes the best way to motivate young children is to incorporate games and drills that children will developmentally understand and be excited about.
