ABOUT US

What makes us tick? Kids! Plain and simple: we are a family business. When we started Lil’ Strikers in 1999 we wanted to build a kids’ program that was fundamentally sound and outrageously fun. What we started in a small indoor soccer arena in Seattle, Washington, has now grown into an international franchise with more than 100 locations and an enrollment of over a quarter million children!

How did we do it? By starting with the experts. Using world renowned child development theories, child development professionals, experienced coaches and the expertise that comes along with thousands of hours of working with children we created a curriculum that teaches kids soccer and so much more. Our program helps develop a child’s social, emotional, and cognitive skills while exercising the child’s body and creating players who are well-balanced and conscientious—on and off the soccer field.

What do we believe?

• We believe childhood is a magical time full of possibilities.
• We believe in approaching everything from a developmental perspective.
• We believe learning should be fun.
• We believe in creating space for all children whether they are on the road to all-star soccer or simply just want to play.

Each facility operating a Lil’ Strikers program has gone through rigorous training to make sure your child is getting the best instruction possible. We also continually evaluate our program to ensure that our curriculum is of the highest quality.
