The Nepean Hotspurs offers the opportunity for youth players aged 4 to 16, to participate in recreational soccer as part of its “Let the Kids Play Program” (LKP). LKP focuses on developing each player's physical, technical/tactical, and social/emotional skills. Our program incorporates the Long-Term Player Development model adopted from Soccer Canada aimed to develop the complete athlete.

Our Player-Focused Approach to Development

Spring recreational once-a-week sessions are perfect for players new to the game of soccer, or looking to further develop their soccer skills in a structured learning environment. Lead by experienced and certified Hotspurs coaches each session combines game-related skill development activities (60%) and intergroup small-sided games (40%).

Age divisions are based on calendar year of birth, however, throughout the program if our coaches determine that a players' development level does not match their biological age grouping it will be recommended that they be moved to a more appropriate development grouping. Through this approach we will ensure ALL PLAYERS HAVE THE BEST CHANCE OF SUCCESS IN SOCCER by tailoring training, competition and coaching to their needs at their appropriate stage of development.

Attempts will be made to limit group sizes in each age group to ensure appropriate coach to player ratios. Age groups or genders may be combined without notice if numbers are insufficient to offer all program groups separately.
