North Reading Youth Soccer & Andover Soccer Association TOPSoccer Program
North Reading is very excited to be continuing our partnership with the Andover Soccer Association in offering TOPSoccer to the many surrounding towns that have been a part of this amazing program for more than 7 years!
TOPSoccer (The Outreach Program for Soccer) is a community based program that is designed to meet the needs of children and young adults that have physical and/or intellectual disabilities. The program is geared towards player development rather than to competition, providing soccer training and recreation for children between the ages of four (4) and nineteen (19) years old.
We strongly believe in supporting the United States Youth Soccer Association's mission statement as it applies to disabled young athletes. USYSA’s motto promotes soccer as the “Game for all Kids,” and this program allows us to include this largely overlooked segment of our population in already established town programs.
What can you expect from TOPSoccer as a parent?
Our number one goal is to provide your child with a great opportunity. That’s our philosophy and the foundation from which we’ll operate this program. You should expect:
- It will be a fun and meaningful experience for your child.
- Field size and activities will be determined based upon the physical and mental abilities of the participants.
- Games and activities will be adapted in ways that ensure your child will learn at his/her own pace.
- Practices and games will be organized
- We’ll have plenty of trained coaches and volunteers on hand at all times
- The program will improve the overall fitness, self-esteem and social skill of your child.
Registration for Fall 2024 is open!
