Looking to get your little one into soccer?  Chinooks is offering a year-round comprehensive grassroots program for the following age groups:

• U4 – players aged 3/4 born in 2017
• U5 - players aged 4/5 born in 2016
• U6's - players aged 6 born in 2015
• U7/U8's - players aged 7&8 born in 2014 or 2013. The grassroots program for U7/U8 is a little less busy/less competitive compared to our CMSA program(s), with no formal games.

SW - Rutland Park Community Centre - 3130 40 Ave SW, Calgary, AB T3E 6W9

Program Time:  5:00 - 6:00 p.m.

Program Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday depending on age/time

You will sign up for one program.

- U4's program will have one time on one day a week, and

- U5's and up will have two times on two  days a week.

We do offer the option to add another day/time (twice a week for U4s) or additional training opportunities if interested. Please contact grassroots@chinooksoccer.com for details.
