Frequently Asked Questions

Lil’ Kickers at The Plex in San Jose or Morgan Hill, California offers age-appropriate soccer classes for children from 18 months through 12 years old.

Classes are grouped by age and designed to match each child’s developmental stage and experience level. Younger children build balance, coordination and listening skills while developing confidence and comfort in a group setting. As children grow, classes introduce greater independence, teamwork and foundational soccer skills through fun, active games.

Skills Institute is also available for children ages 5-12 who are ready for more focused soccer training.

Families from Santa Clara, Milpitas, Campbell, Cupertino and the surrounding area can view the local class schedule to find the right class for their child.

The right Lil’ Kickers class depends on your child’s age, soccer experience and readiness to participate independently.

At The Plex, younger children can begin in parent-and-child classes that use movement, play and simple soccer activities to build confidence and coordination. Older children participate more independently while learning age-appropriate skills such as dribbling, passing, teamwork and listening to a coach.

Children who are new to organized activities often do best in a Hoppers class or a beginner class for their age level . Children with previous soccer experience may be ready for Micro or Skills Institute Classes.

Parents who are unsure can contact Jordan Brown at [email protected] for help choosing the best class.

No. Children do not need previous soccer experience to join Lil’ Kickers at The Plex in San Jose or Morgan Hill.

Lil’ Kickers classes are designed to welcome beginners while also helping more experienced players continue developing their skills. Coaches introduce soccer skills gradually through creative, age-appropriate games and activities.
