Many of our friends had their kids in the DACA Soccer League last year. We decided to give it a try this fall. It's a great starting point for the sport. It was only 6 weeks long and for 1 hour on a Saturday. The kids were divided into age groups and played a half hour for practice and a half hour in a game against a team closest in age. Since we were going to take Austin there, we decided to let Victoria try it as well. She has wanted to try it for a while. It was fairly inexpensive and as I said, a good starting point.
Both Austin and Victoria enjoyed it, especially getting the trophy at the end! One day though, Austin did say he wanted to take gymnastics instead. Overall, I think he had a good experience and I know Victoria really enjoyed it. I don't think she will be serious about soccer like she is with dance, but maybe she can play it for fun here and there. A couple of the weeks were pretty muddy and Austin fell a lot. That was fun to clean up! it's a little dirtier than dance or gymnastics, that's for sure!
