JK Program Description

The Junior Kindergarten (JK) Division (or Moppets as we like to call them) is for 4-5 year old children in Junior Kindergarten (JK defined as the grade immediately preceeding Kindergarten). This is open to children born before 8/31/2019 who are in JK. We have separate boys and girls teams. The teams are kept very small 5 or 6 max and play is 3v3. The teams practice and play games on Saturday mornings in a combined 1 hour session. Coaches take their team through a 20 minute practice and then play a 30 minute game within the hour time slot. Players are expected to be part of the practice as well as the game. Team creation and player placement is totally dependent on parents volunteering to coach. CJSF will provide a pre-season Coaches Clinic and a Coaching Manual containing a curriculum made up of age appropriate practice activities. All activities are fun games intended to develop players' basic skills and further each child's love for the game. Games are simple with just kick-ins and lots of movement.
