The mini soccer program is open to all children aged 4 to 8 within the Wildwood Park neighbourhood and runs during May and June each year.  Our focus is on fun and learning the basics of the game and no prior skills or playing experience is needed.  Teams play in a non-competitive league against teams from Fort Garry CC, Riverview CC and Lord Roberts CC. 

Please note that our program cannot proceed without volunteer coaches.  You do not need prior coaching or soccer experience and can quickly learn to through the resources provided.  Our District Club, Winnipeg South End United has provided 8-week coaching plans for all age groups to assist volunteer coaches in providing fun activities through the season. 

If you are interested in coaching, please contact Sean McRae (soccer convener) at wildwoodsoccer@gmail.com

Youth Soccer (9 to 17 Year Old)

While the Wildwood mini soccer program is very popular, we see a significant drop in registrations once children move to the 9 and up age groups. This is unfortunate, as soccer is a great form of physical activity, and provides kids with skills such as teamwork, perseverance and decision making that they’ll be able to apply to all aspects of their life. Wildwood does not have enough kids to form teams at these levels, but players can continue with their soccer development after mini soccer in several ways:

• Recreational soccer through Ft. Garry CC- http://www.fortgarrycc.ca/
• Developmental or Premier soccer through Winnipeg South End United- http://www.wseu.ca/
• Various private soccer academies.

Please consider these fantastic opportunities to keep your child in the game of soccer.
