All programs promote fair play among players and partners and teach respect.
U.S. Youth Soccer has developed a whole series of program s from regional leagues to an Olympic development team. Children play on small teams, in a small area and the rules are ultra-basic. Coaches just want to see the kids having fun and touching the ball. Soccer Start works with local authorities, educators, community groups and business leaders to provide participants with a safe and reliable place to learn and play. The participants not only learn how to play soccer in a caring environment, the coaches also try to develop players skills to the level where they can play for organizations such as the Special Olympics or with local clubs.
