Micro Program:
The Micro program is designed to develop a player's skill and "touch" of the ball. The matches are played with 3 vs. 3 teams to maximize the involvement. There is no score keeping or win/loss record, as the joy of the game and a player's self confidence are the important measures of a team and individual player's success. The Micro program is designed for boys and girls that meet the soccer criteria for 4 year olds to 6 year olds, typically Preschool through first grade. Boys and Girls play on the same team and will have various degrees of soccer experience.
Recreation Program:
The Recreation program is designed for players to continue learning the basic skills associated with soccer and to enjoy themselves. This is a less-competitive than classic soccer, having fun and learning soccer skills is the priority. The recreation program features separate boys and girls' teams. Experience levels vary dramatically from several years to none.
Classic Program:
Classic soccer is for the youth soccer player who wants the maximum challenge and whose family is in a position to dedicate significant time to practice, traveling, tourneys, games, and finances. Classic teams are highly competitive and travel around the region playing the top teams from other cities. Playing time is not as equitable as in Recreational Soccer, playing time is based on ability and performance. Our classic program is now being ran through (CRUFA) Columbia River United Futbol Acadamy.
