The K - Grade 1 is a key age for introducing young children to team sports. The primary goal of matches at this level is not to win, rather, it is to foster individual development and love of the game.
This age group is an In-Town program, with teams made up of players from the Southborough community. Each team will practice weekly for 75 minutes, including instructional time and a game.
Coaches from BEST Soccer will run the K practices and the first four Grade 1 practices.
