Bloomingdale Toddler Soccer Spring 2018 Registration is OPEN!

Hello Bloomingdale Kids Community and Bloomingdale Toddler Soccer friends,

It seems like we've barely had a winter - my daffodils have been out for weeks. It's a good visual reminder that can only mean one thing - soccer's around the corner! We're back for 5th year and our 10th season! This year, because of the warmth we have had and the fact that spring break for the school-age kiddos is earlier, I'm moving the season up earlier in April - we'll be wrapped up before the Crispus Attucks community day and Memorial Day weekend.

What Is Bloomingdale Toddler Soccer?

This is not a soccer league in the traditional sense since there will not be set teams and competition. It will instead center on age-appropriate activities for kids 18 months through 4 years old that will start to build the foundation for soccer skills, including peer interaction, listening to directions, and familiarity with a soccer ball. There is no fee to participate (other than bringing a soccer ball) and it is entirely volunteer-led. Much like the past seasons, we're running a six-week season on Saturdays in Crispus Attucks Park. Our first day will be Saturday, April 7, 2018.

More info about the soccer league HERE https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_kqy67yBJH_XiWRvfDCUUa5DoaB4srb7SfFpTUX-UA/edit?usp=sharing>.. Questions? Reach out to Neela at bloomdctoddlersoccer@gmail.com mailto:bloomdctoddlersoccer@gmail.com>.


Signing Up

As you all know, we are fairly casual and don't take attendance week to week. However, signing up is critical to help us project our coaching and equipment needs. Thank you in advance for taking the time to fill out the form!

CLICK HERE FOR THE REGISTRATION FORM and please sign up no later than Monday, March 26.

Other Important Notes

1) WE NEED YOU TO COACH! Our league is accessible to all because it is entirely volunteer-led. The most crucial role in our league is the coach who leads activities for an age group for one week. Join the proud tradition of the 175+ excellent parents who have coached in the past seasons and kept this community activity going! No soccer expertise necessary. If you've participated in the past but have not coached, here's your chance!

2) Listserve: Some time shortly after March 26th, the toddler soccer listserve will be refreshed to include only families signed up for the Spring 2018 season. For those of you who will not be participating in the spring, don't worry, you will not get messages beyond the beginning of April. However, if you'd like to stay on the list serve even if you are not participating this season, email bloomdctoddlersoccer@gmail.com and let me know.
