City Parks Foundation is excited to continue their new initiative this Fall to encourage more teenage girls to participate in soccer and stay involved with the game. Programming for girls ages 13-16 will be held at all citywide locations. This program will offer a supportive environment for girls of all skill levels to make friends, build self-esteem, and most importantly, have fun!
To encourage more teenage girls to participate in soccer and stay involved with the game, we are introducing a new session this summer for girls ages 13-16 at all nine citywide locations. Led by female coaches, this program will offer a supportive environment for girls of all skill levels to make friends, build self-esteem, and most importantly, have fun! Additionally, participants will have opportunities for community service and paid jobs assisting with our classes for ages 8-12.
