NASC introduces the younger members of our community to the game of soccer through our Micro Soccer program. U7 Micro is the first level within NASC in which teams practice one night per week in addition to games on Saturdays.

All games are played on Saturday mornings and consist of 20 minute halves.  With skill development being one of the primary objectives of Micro, we play an adapted game which promotes many "ball touches" for each child. This game is 4 vs. 4 on a short field with small goals and no goalkeepers.  This allows the necessary space for children to develop their individual dribbling and ball handling techniques.

The field location varies from season to season. Practices nights also vary season to season based on field availability and the number of teams playing. However, practice is almost always 6-7pm on your assigned night.  If your child cannot play on a particular night, your coordinator will make the necessary adjustment.   Games are always on Saturday mornings, between 8:45am and 1:30pm.

Equipment needed for U7 Micro Soccer:

• A size 3 soccer ball
• Reversible jersey (purchased at registration, used for multiple seasons)
• Water bottle
• Shin guards
• Soccer socks that cover the shin guards.
• Soccer cleats are required. (Baseball and Football cleats are NOT permitted. Please check before purchasing them.)
