Fall Season Soccer Class | 4 & 5 Year Olds in Fort Greene

Albert J. Parham Playground · Fort Greene

Ages 4–5 This 45-minute class is designed for older four-year-olds and five-year-olds who are ready to build more confidence and independence on the field. Children will practice dribbling, ball control, shooting, movement, teamwork, and simple decision-making through games and small-group activities. The focus is still on fun, but coaches will begin introducing more soccer-specific instruction and opportunities for children to play together. Class Location: Albert J Parham Playground (on Adelphi between Dekalb ave & Willoughby ave) We play in the handball courts Choosing the Right Class Class Age Groups: 1&2, 2&3, 3&4, 4&5 Our age ranges are guidelines. Families should select the class that best matches their child’s age, experience, independence, attention span, and comfort level. Children do not need to move into the next group immediately after their birthday. For example, a child who recently turned three may still be most comfortable in the Ages 2–3 class. A child who is three-and-a-half or approaching four and can participate more independently may be ready for the Ages 3–4 class. Our coaches may recommend a different group after observing a child if we believe another class would provide a better experience. Rain Policy We move our classes indoors at Futbol Rebels Clubhouse if we have rain in the radar. Our clubhouse is located on 260 Jefferson Avenue, Brooklyn 11216.
