Rec Grade School

Birth Years: 2020 (U6) - 2014 (U12)

Boys & Girls
Campus(es): Central & Southwest

The first years in RISE Rec are very formative and will greatly influence the pathway your player chooses in the future. This program is designed for both new and returning players who are typically seeking a seasonal activity to exercise and develop friendships, and who want to be part of a team and a club. Most RISE Rec players consider soccer one of their favorite sports, but have multiple commitments outside of soccer.

The first years in RISE Rec are very formative and will greatly influence the pathway your player chooses in the future. This program is designed for both new and returning players who are typically seeking a seasonal activity to exercise, develop friendships, and who want to be part of a team and a club. Most RISE Rec players consider soccer one of their favorite sports, but have multiple commitments outside of soccer. 

Rec players in this program seek an engaging, stable, and consistent training environment where training sessions are led by licensed coaches. Having licensed coaches guide our youngest players allows RISE to consistently deliver age-appropriate training and drive individual player development at your player’s pace. As your player progresses through the program, you’ll notice a clear improvement in their basic technical skills. 

Players who would benefit from the RISE Grade School are excited to play soccer and learn about new ways to manipulate the ball with their feet. Rec players will try to excel in an environment by showing the willingness to learn. By discovering a love for the game, embracing the culture at RISE, and developing their technical skills, interested players can forge a path to a higher level of play when it’s age-appropriate. In addition to the soccer activities, the Recreational Program provides a great social environment for both parents and players.‍
