Kids in Nippers and In-House play on teams comprised of other Litchfield kids against other teams made up of Litchfield kids. These levels emphasize good sportsmanship, essential skills, elementary principles of teamwork, learning to accept coaching, and the fun of playing team sports. Scores and victories are not tabulated. Both involve one evening practice and one Saturday morning game each week. Both play using small goals and small fields with about 6-9 players on a side.
Coaches coach right on the fields with the kids.
Travel Soccer has two divisions. Both involve teams of kids from Litchfield playing teams of kids from other towns. Teams in Travel Soccer record scores and victories. The level of play is more skillful and competitive than In-House. Away games are played in such towns as Woodbury and New Hartford.
