Becoming a TOPSoccer Buddy
TOPSoccer Buddies are enablers. They are youth volunteers who participate with TOPSoccer players to enable player participation. Buddies are typically High School age teenagers. Soccer experience is not necessary. The only requirement is a strong desire to enable TOPSoccer players to be successful and too have FUN! NJYS offers a free 2-hour TOPSoccer Buddy Clinic combining a 1-hour classroom seminar with a 1-hour practical demonstration that addresses player characteristics, the role and qualities of a buddy, and how best to assist the TOPSoccer Coach in providing a fun growth experience for soccer players with special needs.
Eligible Ages to be a Buddy: Freshman - Senior in High School
