WHAT

The Millennium Soccer Club (MSC) is in its 23rd year of providing affordable and accessible soccer programs for elementary school youth living in several of Madison's lower-income, ethnically diverse neighborhoods, many of whom might not otherwise have an opportunity to play. These programs (offered each fall, spring, and summer) focus primarily on providing basic instruction in the fundamentals of soccer along with giving our participants an opportunity to have fun playing in a wide variety of soccer games.


WHO

Our neighborhood-based programs are open to both boys and girls who will be playing together on teams in one of our two grade-level divisions: 1st/2nd and 3rd-5th. This fall, we anticipate that MSC’s soccer programs will serve over 250 kids.


WHEN

The upcoming fall season will consist of six Saturday morning sessions that begin on September 21st and end on October 26th.


PROGRAM SET-UP

Each Saturday session, which consists of a combination practice and game, runs from 9:30-11:00. For the first half of the session, our coaches will lead their teams through a variety of challenging activities that focus primarily on the development of good individual skills, as well as a number of basic team-related skills. In the second half, each team will play a game against another team in its grade-level division. Since our teams consist of only 6-8 players, the games are played 4v4 (with no goalies), which enables greater involvement by all of our players.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

MSC is currently seeking volunteer coaches for all of its programs this fall. Those who volunteer will coach with the same team at each of the sessions that they are available to coach. It is anticipated, and assumed, that those who volunteer will not be available to coach at all six of our sessions because of school, travel, work commitments, etc.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AS A VOLUNTEER

You will find that Millennium’s young players really enjoy playing soccer, are eager learners, and have always worked extremely well with their volunteer coaches. The coordinators at each of Millennium’s neighborhood sites will provide weekly practice plans and coaching tips for their coaches.
