Sign up for Weekly Practice Plans


Sign up for Youth Soccer 101 and get one practice plan per week via email for the entire season.


Each plan includes 3-4 activities supported by animation/video to ensure that the coaches understand them.  A printable option is also available.


The coach spends a few minutes a week viewing the pre-made age-appropriate plan and the result is a confident coach who is prepared to run effective fun practices for the entire season.

Specify Grapevine-Southlake Soccer Association when you register.
NOTE: If your age group is not listed, select the next age group above (i.e. for U7, select U8).
