MINI CELTIC PROGRAM
Palatine Celtic is proud to present their newest program, Mini Celtic. The program is open to all boys and girls born in 2017- 2020 (must be 3 by end of each session). Each class is led by our Youth Program Director, Jen Jeschke. Classes will meet one day per week for 45 minutes for a 6 week period. Mini Celtic introduces soccer to our Pre-K players (3-5 years old) or beginner 6 year olds. We use game-based activities that kids are familiar with to introduce the concepts of dribbling, passing, and shooting. Another focus is developing the physical literacy of our players- running, jumping, balance, coordination, and agility. As we try to develop our players from a holistic model, we also teach cooperation, sharing, and teamwork in small-sided games that players enjoy!
