Locomotive Academy 4U - Formerly PK PAWS

                                                                                                 

                                                              

HOSA was founded nearly 40 years ago with a simple mission, provide any interested child the opportunity to play soccer regardless of age or ability.

LOCOMOTIVE 4 program (previously "PK Paws") is designed for three and four year old children and operates in gender specific or coed groups as dictated by registration numbers.  Please visit the Academy 4's Page for more details on this program.  The program utilizes age appropriate games and challenges designed to introduce skills and concepts in a safe, fun and noncompetitive environment.  Each participant may be joined by one parent for all activities to aid in fostering teamwork rather than focusing on individual performance. A season consists of seven 30-minute weekly sessions (the two weeks immediately following the season are reserved for make-up sessions in the event of activities being cancelled by weather or otherwise unsafe conditions). All sessions will take place at the Hilliard Soccer Complex.   


The $60/registration fee includes a t-shirt for the player and one parent.  Participants are required to provide their own size “3” soccer ball and should come dressed for physical activity. Soccer cleats are optional for the players, we recommend parents wear athletic shoes.  Shin guards are required for the players including a standard soccer sock that pulls up and over the guard. Be sure to bring plenty of water for both parent and child. 


Fee: $60.00 per season. 

Please note there are NO refunds given.
