Modifications to the game allow full participation and enjoyment to each young athlete. To address the special needs of these athletes, each player will have a volunteer "Soccer Buddy" to assist them at practices and games. Our goal is to provide a recreational, relaxed approach to the game of soccer for this very special group of players.
