ABOUT DUXBURY YOUTH SOCCER
Pre-Coastal In-Town Program
U10 3rd & 4th grade
Program Description
This In-town program geared towards competitive, full field play. The goal of this program includes more advanced skill development, strategy and in-game, full field tactics. Greater emphasis on strategy, positioning while integrating a greater spirit of competition. Inclusive of 3rd/ 4th grade with a hyper-focus on fundamentals. Every effort shall be made to evenly distribute talent levels across teams to ensure competitive matches.
The DYS Board unanimously determined to bring the U10 level back in town (versus as a part of the Coastal Youth Soccer League) to better create a positive and consistent soccer experience. As appropriate, we will supplement in-town matches with 1 out of town game with neighboring towns that also have an in-town U10 program. At the end of each spring season all U10 will compete in the Annual DYSA U10 Jamboree tournament.
Age Group
This program is for kids that will be in 3rd or 4th grade in Fall 2024.
