We love soccer shots!!!

Such a great program for the little ones. Coach Mary was so sweet and patient with the kids. The half hour is a perfect time for the small kids too.

Coach Mary in New Lenox for the 5 year olds is a great coach. She seemed like a natural at leading small groups in sports. My older son attended Lockport sessions years ago, and we had the same great experience. I intend to have my kindergartener sign up in New Lenox again this fall.

Coach Seth was absolutely wonderful! He was engaging, kind, and taught the skills in an accessible way to the kids. You could tell he wanted to be there and enjoyed what he was doing! He made the experience great!
I wish there was an email reminder about being offered July 5th. That would’ve been helpful.

The coaches organized activities to keep the kids engaged the entire time. They are enthusiastic, kind and encouraging to the kids. We had an amazing experience and will be signing up again!

Coach Seth helped my son have a love for soccer! He taught him all the skill in a fun way that he would understand! Can’t wait for next season!

Our son looked forward to soccer every Tuesday night. The coaches were always positive and encouraging. We love that the program focuses on positive self-talk and having fun all while teaching the fundamentals of soccer.

Coach Seth was great

Coaches are awesome. Perfect amount of time for the kids too. I would like to see split games when the 3-4 year olds play the game at end of practice. Instead of having 5-6 kids on each team
Scrambling for the ball, I think they would get more out of it if each coach took a smaller group and had two separate games. I can’t wait until next year for my now 2 year old

Great coaches

Coaches are amazing

The soccer coach was great! She is what made the kids have so much fun. Full of energy and extremely knowledgeable of the skills she was teaching (airplane) was my little ones favorite.

Coach Mary was knowledgeable and very patient. She made sure to engage all of the tots. She knew them all by name from Day 1. Great experience!

Everything. It was perfect for the 2 yr olds. I was sad when it was over lol

This was my family's first experience with soccer shots. My son has been a part of a few park district sports programs that didn't live up to our hopes and expectations, largely due to the "coaches", so we went into soccer shots not holding out a lot of hope. The first class, we were introduced to Coach Mary and my wife and I watched as Coach Mary not only exhibited a passion for soccer but for working with children as well. Every week got better as Coach Mary built on the previous lessons and taught new skills. Coach Mary kept the children's attention through fun games and drills that kept the children having fun and engaged. The children also got stamps at the end of each class which was a wonderful touch that my son always looked forward to. Coach Mary was also very kind toward my younger son and always gave him a stamp despite him not being in the program. After the last class, Coach Mary passed out prize water bottles to the children, a gesture that touched my family and delighted my son. Soccer shots is an incredible program that I can't wait to enjoy with my family again and Coach Mary is the absolute best person for the job.

Coaches are friendly.

Everything is great!

The coaches have always been very patient and energetic with the kids.
The schedule works well for us and communication is great!

Everyone is always so patient and friendly with the kids. They learn the basics of soccer while having so much fun!

I like the encouraging, positive environment for the kids. We didn’t have a regular coach (our coach was coach Mary and I think she was there 2-3 out of the 6 practices), which I think was difficult for little kids (3 year olds) because they thrive on consistency and routine. I also think the coaches could speak more slowly and use less words for the littlest kids to understand their directions better. Other than those minor things, it was a great experience.

Coach Mary was awesome with our group of newly 3 year olds. They all came a long way in 5 short weeks!

Mary was a great coach! She was always so positive, upbeat and patient with the kids. She was incredibly knowledgeable about phrases to say to the kids. Thanks Mary for such a great experience for these kids!

Kids are having fun learning from Coach Austin and they love splitting into 2 groups and playing a soccer game.

Age appropriate classes and awesome coaches! Coach Mary did great!

Fairly easy for the kids to understand and short enough that the kids weren’t inattentive

Coach Maddie was amazing with the kids. Very patient and understanding. My child looked forward every week to see her and say hi.

Coach Nikki is amazing! She does a great job with the kids. She’s organized and does a great job teaching them skills.

Good coaches
