About Lil' Kickers
Step onto the field during any Lil’ Kickers class and you will find it transformed into a world created just for your child. Our well-trained coaches will thrill your child with creative, high-energy and age-appropriate activities that serve as a great introduction to soccer, and help children master developmental milestones, appropriate for their age.
Whether your child is new to soccer or has already developed a love for the game, the progressive nature of Lil’ Kickers offers a place for children at every level. Our convenient class times provide families options to accommodate multiple children and busy schedules. ATTENTION FOSTER FAMILIES! Did you know that Lil’ Kickers at Salmon Creek Indoor covers 50% of the cost for foster children to participate in classes? So far in 2018 we have donated over $5,000 to foster children in the area! |
