Offseason Programming (Update 5/17)
New updated dates!!! 

The seniors wanted to lead some June kickarounds, so the following dates and times will be optional training sessions that the seniors will lead at the AHS Soccer fields. They will be 6/5, 6/9, 6/12, 6/16, 6/19, 6/23, 6/26, 6/30 from 4:30pm-6pm. These are a little more casual kickaround/pickup style soccer. Plus, it is a chance for the seniors to grow as leaders. 

As a reminder, the dates where coaches will be present will be 7/3, 7/7, 7/10, 7/17, 7/21, 7/24, 7/28, 7/31, 8/4 from 4:30pm - 6pm. 
Those dates should be every Monday/Friday throughout summer.  

Please let me know if you have any questions,

8th Grade Kickarounds (4/21/23 update)
ABK is holding three optional/non mandatory kickarounds, open to any current 8th grade soccer players, on Mondays, May 8th, May 15th, and May 22nd. From 5:30pm-6:30pm. These will land outside of our current varsity girls game days and directly after our practice. 

Important info: Try to arrive around 5:15pm at Varsity soccer fields on the East side of campus, at the student parking lot. Players can be dropped off and walk through the gate and sit in the middle of bleachers to get suited and booted. Once the varsity team clears out, I'll direct players on activity for the day. 

Please don't wear club gear to train in, and white tops are preferred. Have shin guards and we will provide soccer balls. 

Parent Guidelines: Let this be the player's experience. Drop them off for the hour or remain in parking lot if you want. Let your player enjoy meeting teammates and coaches without parent intervention. Coaches will have plenty of time to meet parents, but just not yet.

Pickup time is 6:30pm.

Please fill out this google form if you plan on attending any of the sessions by April 29th.

Parents are not allowed on or near the field.  Please wait to pick up players in your vehicles in the parking lot.  

Parent Meeting is Tuesday, August 16. This meeting is only for players that make a team. More details will follow upon team selection.
