We believe in teaching children in ways that suit their developmental level. So, you won't see adult-like skill drills in our classes, but you will see teaching methods specifically designed to create an atmosphere that is effective and fun. You will also see happy, confident, and sweaty kids who are eager to learn and want to keep coming back for more. 

Whether your child is new to soccer or has already developed a love for the game, the progressive nature of Little Kickers offers a place for children at every level. For more information, just click below.

Steele Creek Soccer Club (SCSC) is a family-oriented soccer club that provides an opportunity to play organized soccer at the recreational, developmental, and competitive levels for players ages 6 – 14 years old. We offer challenging programs that place the focus on the development of the whole player within a team environment. 

SCSC is committed to providing the best tactical and overall athletic development for each individual player while offering players, their families, and coaches an enjoyable soccer experience. We are dedicated to helping players reach their full potential while fostering a love of the game. 

Instructional clinics for both coaches and players are offered each season to all program participants at no additional cost.

Player Development 

The long-term development plan identifies five areas for player development – technical, tactical, social, psychological, and physical. Our experience shows that this methodology best produces a well-rounded player capable of competitive play. The coaching curriculum from the little kicker's program to U14 follows progressions on the importance of each stage of development, from motor skills and social development, through technical work in the middle ages, and tactical practices at the older ages and later stages of development. 

Education & Training 

While practice is important, in any sport, Steele Creek Soccer Club focuses on the quality of practice for more effective player development both on and off the field. Quality is far better than the number of players. Excessive tournament play and vast amounts of fitness without a ball is detrimental to the player and increases the incidence of injury, and our hope is that through the education of our parents and players, we can prevent the likelihood of injury through proper habits on & off the field.

Parents play a vital role in youth soccer but are often the least informed stakeholders. Most parents’ primary goal is to help their child enjoy their soccer experience and help them to reach their potential. In addition to that, many parents help manage their child’s team and some even hold important positions at their youth club. Most board members and decision-makers at youth clubs are parents.

We at Steele Creek recognize the important contribution made by parents in our soccer programs and appreciate the challenges facing parents in their quest for guidance on how to help their child reach their potential in life, how to be supportive, and how to help their club in its mission to develop players. 

Our goal is to ensure that each parent, regardless of the program their child is in, has access to information and seminars provided by the club to cultivate a culture of understanding, transparency, and open communication.
