Over 10 million 4 ½ to 19 year olds play soccer in the US. 10 MILLION and more join each year! The fun begins with a field full of children bunched around the ball and leads to travel tournaments, school teams, and even college ball. From your child’s first walk onto a Little Kicks soccer field and through the ranks of childhood and teen soccer, Soccer for Moms covers the nuts and bolts of the game for beginner and experienced soccer moms alike.
We believe practices and games are much more enjoyable – and fun! - when you understood the basic rules of the game, knew how to prepare your kids and yourself beforehand, and have proven strategies for successful parenting for your fit, on-the-go kids.
Soccer for Moms is a handbook full of practical information from a mom who has lived the soccer life from age five through university play and as a Soccer Mom with her own three children, for 15 years. Straight talk and tips derived from real life soccer mom experiences will help families get more enjoyment out of the whole soccer experience, and learn to love the game, whether they’re playing it, coaching the team, or cheering from the sidelines.
