Winter Registration Opens at 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 29
Join us this winter in three convenient locations. Learning and fun for ages 3-14.
The off-season is the perfect time for soccer training. This is when goal-setting begins for spring, with players learning new skills while developing existing ones, preparing for team play, and getting ready for the next level. We offer a range of programs for beginners through travel players, all carefully designed to help develop technique and confidence.
Locations and Schedule
We offer a variety of indoor soccer skills classes in three locations: In Fairfax at both the JCC of Northern Virginia (8900 Little River Turnpike) and Gesher Jewish Day School (4800 Mattie Moore Ct.), and in McLean at OneLife Fitness-Tysons (8250 Greensboro Dr.).
Player Age/Level Groupings
Within each program, we often further group players by age and level based on the information you provide at registration. For example, while a program might be designed for ages 9-13, we may split the group so that the younger and/or less experienced players are not facing off against older, more experienced ones.
Please note that to maintain a high quality of play, some of our travel-only sections will have a new application process as part of registration. Should players not be deemed ready to participate, their registration fee will be refunded in full.
About Our Waitlists
Space is limited and winter classes in both sessions fill extremely quickly. When a program is full, we automatically start a waitlist and stay in contact with those families. If we are unable to accommodate your player, we will refund your registration fee in full.

Skills360 (Ages 9-13)
Skills360 is a complete skills development program, designed to build well-rounded players. Unlike specialty programs that focus on one area of the game, Skills360 develops the full range of essential skills, including dribbling, passing, receiving, ball control, 1v1 play, and finishing. Through high-energy training and game-realistic activities, players improve their technique, creativity, and confidence. It’s 360° player development—all in one program.
Players on teams in travel leagues such as ECNL, CCL, and higher NCSL divisions are invited to participate in our travel-only sections.

Ball Mastery (Ages 7-8)
This program focuses on ball manipulation, soft touch, creative moves, passing and receiving, and dribbling in tight space. By adding cognitive challenges, players develop field awareness, reaction speed, quick thinking, and smart decision making, and learn to apply their skills in game-like situations. A vital bridge between introductory classes and more advanced technical training, developed with young players in mind to help them begin to really understand the nuances of the game.

We also cover tryout preparedness, how to organize your warmup, and other techniques to help players stand out and do their best.

VIP Training (Ages 9-14)
Our flagship winter clinic series returns! Each class in this 7-week series is taught by a Very Important Professional -- a nationally known coach with extensive experience developing top-tier players. These experts don't farm the hard work out to junior staff -- each actively plans and runs their own session, sharing their unique experiences, philosophies and methods directly with young up-and-coming players. An excellent tool for players seeking a road map for next-level development.

CognoSoccer (ages 9-14)
Boost "soccer IQ" with our targeted CognoSoccer program, which teaches athletes to play soccer with their head as well as their feet. By adding "thinking skills" to the traditional emphasis on technical skills and physical fitness, we engage the brain and enable it to build new neural pathways, enabling players to think faster than the game's pace and see several moves ahead. Improve decision-making, field awareness, reaction time, and more.
Please note that CognoSoccer is designed for advanced players with high-level technical skills.

An excellent off-season training opportunity to improve reaction time, balance, and motoric coordination to support technical skill growth.

Goalkeeper Training (Ages 8-13)
Goalkeeper Training teaches players to confidently and successfully repel attacks, by developing technical, physical, and cognitive skill sets. Goalkeepers must possess and improve a separate set of technical, mental, and physical skills than the field player. Players learn through instructional demos, technical activities and dynamic exercises. They also have an opportunity to apply the skills and concepts learned in game-like situations.

StreetSoccer (Ages 9-13)
Informal scrimmages on neighborhood streets are where many of the best soccer players around the world got their start. Our StreetSoccer program builds on this to feature a variety of fun pickup-style games using different size teams, goals, and balls. This "hidden curriculum" creates a fun, low-stakes environment where players improve creativity, ball control, 1v1 skills, and confidence while practicing and developing their footwork, playmaking, field awareness, and overall "soccer IQ."
Please note: This class truly is a learning experience, but it initially looks different than our other programs. The ethos of our StreetSoccer program is "just keep playing." Trainers provide a framework, offering different scenarios, challenging footskills with different-sized balls, continually mixing up teams and matchups, and providing in-game advice and mentoring to help develop creativity, innovation, and confidence. But they do not provide traditional start/stop coaching, because the important thing is to let the game be the teacher instead of interrupting the action to deliver coaching points.

Lil' Boots Playgroups are the perfect way to keep your child active and connected with friends, neighbors, and classmates. Anyone can form a Playgroup that makes your life easier, not harder!
We use our innovative, active, engaging Lil' Boots curriculum to help young players develop true soccer fundamentals and a love of the game, while developing coordination, confidence, and communication and social skills.
Starting your Lil' Boots Playgroups is easy!
(Psst! We also offer custom groups for older players -- please see our Private and Mini Groups tab.)
Sometimes a different set of eyes or a different voice can help a group bust through a training plateau. Our experienced, professional trainers frequently work in consultation with individual teams' coaches, developing skills and helping to support a team's vision and goals. They can help players fine-tune their skills; introduce cognitive training to improve multitasking, processing speed, situational awareness, and smart decision-making; and help troubleshoot areas of difficulty to pave the path to success.
All packages start with a free observation session during a team game
Possible areas of focus include:
Game-day coaching (great for 3v3 tournaments and other special events)
In all custom sessions, top-level Golden Boot Soccer trainers will implement an in-depth, personalized assessment and intervention strategy based on existing strengths and areas in need of improvement. We carefully match trainer to group to ensure a good experience and set the stage for growth and development.
