Thank you for a wonderful event

     Thank you, all devoted parents, who were able to join us for the special event this past Saturday.  We had a great turn-out, and wish that all of our campers could have experienced the fun with us.  Our special helpers, Stephanie and Konrad were of great assistance, and brought a little something extra to the event.

     Konrad focused on speed and strength training, specifically designed for goalkeepers.  It was great to see the children challenged, and learning different kinds of movement with someone else.  Stephanie was able to keep her group of children under control while Coach Ken and Nessi handled the larger groups.  Our circuit of different games turned out to be a lot of fun, not only with the help from our trainers, but from the campers' cooperation .  The children were on their best behavior, and were full of energy!

    After the circuit, families were surprised with a guest appearance by the New York Red Bulls street team!   They showed off with some juggling and ball tricks, and later let the kids show some tricks of their own.  The street team gave out posters with autographs, took pictures, and left the children with smiles on their faces. 

     It was a great experience, and we are so glad that it turned out as well as it did.  To the families who could not make it- do not worry.  We plan on holding more events like this in the future.  Let us know if you are interested in our NY Red Bulls field trip on October 9th to see the Bulls play Real Salt Lake at 4pm.  We are able to give our families tickets at a discounted price.  Email us at ken@prekkickers.com for details.

NY Red Bulls Street Team surprises Pre K Soccer Group!

Pre K Kickers, an up and coming youth soccer training organization in New Jersey will be teaming up with the NY Red Bulls Street team to provide a fun and entertaining hour for their soccer campers, ages 3-6.  The event will take place at Stonybrook Park in Randolph, NJ off of Park Ave, on Saturday, September 25, at 11:15 a.m.
Pre K Kickers was erected in June of this year, and has grown quickly by positive word of mouth and various, inexpensive marketing tactics.  This company began as a soccer enthusiast and his creative partner, hoping to spread the good word of soccer among families in New Jersey.  Their target age group of 3 to 6-year-olds makes teaching soccer fun, fulfilling, and motivating.  Pre K Kickers has held free soccer camps throughout the towns of North Jersey during the summer, and has developed into a business that satisfied mommies and daddies are willing to pay for.
Pre K Kickers hopes to expand and to continue providing the ultimate soccer experience for kids.  Their hope is to carry free camps into the Winter months.  For now, parents and children are getting as much valuable experience out of the high-energy, educational, and FUN camps as possible. 
The NY Red Bulls are another organization who hopes to spread the word of soccer, not just in New Jersey, but in the U.S.  Sponsoring charitable events such as this is a wonderful way to introduce the professionalism of the sport to kids at a young age.  Dribbling, juggling, and autographs create another perspective for families- that soccer is not just a sport, but a fun, family experience.
