Junior Arsenal U5 Program

U5 Junior Arsenal Program 

  U5 is a parent-involved program a parent must be close for the volunteer coach to contact if help is needed with the child

 The emphasis is on having fun while learning basic physical literacy skills. Information on the ASA Grassroots program can be found at Festival Play (PTM) - Alberta Soccer 

ASA believes that players at this age level benefit more from learning soccer basics by keeping all players engaged by more ball touches.

The ASA grassroots plan is to have no teams at these age levels. 

Each group will be rotating through four stations which are:

• General Movement
• Soccer Technique
• Coordination
• Small Sided Games

Each station is 12-15 min to ensure maximum ball touches for each player.  

The Importance at this age is for the child to have fun, get use to taking direction from others, and learn coordination and to gain confidence!
