4V4 DIVISION RELEASED FOR NWOYSL!

THERE ARE NUMEROUS BENEFITS FOR OUR YOUNG PLAYERS IN THIS FORMAT:

• Players will develop skills with the ball faster, as well as become more confident and comfortable with the ball. 
• With smaller roster sizes, the kids will get more playing experience, and more touches on the ball!
• Small-sided games help kids to promote quicker decision-making, better awareness of the game, and develop soccer intelligence. 
• The transition from 4v4 to 7v7 will be much smoother as the formats allow for an easy progression.
• Finally, the small-sided games foster the relationships between player roles within the team. 

FOR ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR:
