West Michigan Galaxy Shooting Stars
Our Shooting Star program is the perfect starting point for young athletes eager to explore the world of soccer! Specifically designed for our youngest players, this training series introduces children to the fundamentals of the game in a fun, supportive, and engaging environment.
A Gentle Introduction to Soccer:
Shooting Star sessions focus on basic skills like dribbling, passing, and shooting, using age-appropriate activities and games that keep kids excited and moving. Our coaches create a playful atmosphere where every child feels comfortable trying new things and learning at their own pace.
Building Confidence & Coordination:
Beyond soccer techniques, Shooting Star helps kids develop important motor skills, balance, and coordination. We celebrate every milestone, big or small, and encourage each child to build self-confidence both on and off the field.
Fostering a Love for the Game:
Our goal is to spark a lifelong passion for soccer! Through positive reinforcement and lots of encouragement, our coaches make sure every session is filled with laughter, teamwork, and the joy of discovery.
For Kids of All Abilities:
Shooting Star is open to all children, regardless of previous experience. Whether your child is brand new to soccer or just looking for a fun way to get active, they’ll find a welcoming space to learn, play, and make new friends.
