Arlington Soccer Club is pleased to announce that registration for the Fall 2022 TOPSoccer program will open on Tuesday, August 23. TOPSoccer is a recreational soccer program for players with intellectual, emotional, and/or physical disabilities or differences. This Fall’s program has been expanded to a 6-week format and will continue to be offered free of charge.
Participants:
The ASC TOPSoccer program is for children and youth ages 5-18 who would benefit from a soccer environment adapted to players with intellectual, emotional, or physical disabilities or differences. Family/caregiver participation is welcomed but not expected. Players do not need to reside in Arlington or attend school in Arlington in order to participate.
Schedule:
Sessions will be held at 3:30-4:30pm on an accessible field in Arlington on the following Sundays: 9/18/2022, 9/25/2022, 10/2/2022, 10/16/2022, 10/23/2022, and 10/30/2022.
Registration:
Registration is required, and space is limited to 30 participants to ensure a positive experience for everyone. Registration is offered first-come, first-serve. If the program is capped by the time you register, your name will be added to the waitlist. Waitlisted players are accepted to the program if space and resources allow.
Coaching:
Sessions will be run by ASC Vice President, Travis Baggett. Coach Travis holds a US Soccer ‘D’ Coaching License and is a primary care physician. Each participant will be paired with a ‘buddy’ who will assist and encourage them through sessions.
ASC is excited and eager to continue its efforts at improving access to soccer for everyone in our community. This information may be forwarded to anyone who you think might be interested in participating in or learning more about ASC’s TOPSoccer program.
