The following describes a program for preschoolers and younger youth to promote the game of soccer and a healthy lifestyle. The Program is born from the expertise of the Metro Tulsa Soccer Clubs United (MTsc U). The below characteristics define the MTsc U Mommy or Daddy & Me (M&M) Soccer Program.
The MTsc U Mommy or Daddy & Me (M&M) Soccer Program consists of group sessions involving one parent or guardian and their child both simultaneously participating in dynamic, virtually non-stop soccer and agility activities and games during 50-min. sessions. Registration is for six (6) sessions through MTsc United’s online registration. Participants choose the scheduled sessions they want to register for during the M&M season. All session times may not be available due to participation.

The Mommy or Daddy & Me (M&M) Program is generally open to U2 (2 - 2 ½ years old) U3 (2 ½ - 3 ½ years old) and U4 (3 ½ to 4 ½ years old) youth athletes.
FOCUS
