Just for Kicks is an exciting soccer program that has just entered its eighth year now. It is designed to give children with special needs an opportunity to learn soccer skills, work in a team environment and—most importantly—have some fun! There are no registration fees and children from all ages are encouraged to join. We provide soccer jerseys for everyone and at the end of the program, we reward each child with a medallion or trophy.
Our soccer program is held at the UVic McKinnon Gym on Sunday afternoons at 2 PM. The program runs from late September until mid-December and then from mid-January until the end of March. During this program, we also hold two special parties for the participants. One is during Christmas and the other is at the end of March.
The success of our program is largely due to our enthusiastic and helpful Soccer Buddies. These dedicated volunteers come out every weekend to play along side the children and help make sure that every child gets to participate.
If you are interested in becoming a Soccer Buddy or if you know of a child who would love to participate, please email Graham or Carmen Duncan at just4kicks@canassist.ca or call 250-598-9382.
