Bring your kid to a Free Session and receive direct feedback from coaches
If your kid enjoys the Free Session (and we know they will!), you can enroll in our program to keep the momentum going.

Our coaches are former players, educators, and parents who love working with kids as much as they love soccer. Every coach at Free Session Soccer Academy is background‑checked, trained in first aid, and certified in age‑appropriate coaching methods.
"Player‑to‑coach ratios designed for personal attention. Positive, encouraging feedback every practice. Focus on fundamentals, fun, and building character."
- Daniel Roberts
We want your child to experience a real training session—warm‑up, drills, and small‑sided games—before you decide on a program.
Book your Free Session online
Arrive 10–15 minutes early to meet the coach and settle in.
Your child joins the group that matches their age and skill. You’re welcome to watch, ask questions, and chat with our staff.
After Free Session, we’ll walk you through program options

Still not sure if it’s right for your kid? Here are answers to the most common questions we get from new families.
Comfortable athletic clothes, soccer cleats or sneakers, and a water bottle. If your child already has shin guards, bring those as well—but they’re not required for the trial. We provide all soccer balls and training equipment.
We currently offer programs for kids ages 5–14, grouped into age brackets (5–7, 8–10, 11–14). This keeps activities fun, safe, and appropriate for each stage of development.
Absolutely. We encourage parents and guardians to stay, watch from the sidelines, and get to know our coaches. You’ll see exactly how we run practices and interact with players.
No. The free session is simply a chance for your family to experience our academy. If it’s a great fit, we’ll share membership options—but there’s zero pressure to commit.
Beginners are welcome. We design drills and games that work for all experience levels, and we place your child in a group where they can feel successful right away.
Take 30 seconds to reserve your child’s free trial. We’ll match them with the right group, confirm the date, and send everything you need to feel prepared.
No credit card required to book.
Just pick a day and we’ll hold your child’s spot.
