LAHAINA – Maui United Soccer will hold a Keiki Academy in Lahaina for boys and girls ages 4-7. The spring session will start on April 23.

The academy introduces the game of soccer to keiki. Guided by trained coaches, including former MLS professional soccer player Paul Holocher, the proven, age-appropriate curriculum includes ten special training sessions at local Lahaina fields on Thursdays and Fridays, along with three Keiki Academy Jamboree Fun Days on Sundays at a Central Maui location, bringing all Maui United Soccer regions together to play, learn and celebrate soccer.

All players will learn the foundations of dribbling, movement and agility, and developing comfort with the ball at the young player’s feet.

If your young son or daughter loves soccer, or wants to begin playing and learning, this is the perfect program to start. The cost is $125 per session, which includes all training and Jamboree Days. For new participants, there is an additional uniform cost of $35.
