Team uniforms
U7 and older coaches pick and distribute uniforms from any vendor. Keep the total cost to parents around $45, and plan to wear the same kit for several years.
For new coaches
Coaching little ones
- Let them play as much soccer as possible. No lines, no laps, no lectures.
- Greet every player when they arrive, and end every practice on a happy note.
- Sit down during games, and don't coach from the sideline.
- Bring a first-aid kit with ice packs.
