It’s week 9, which means we only have 2 weeks left before the Christmas break!
RECOMMENDATION CARDS This week coaches will be handing out Recommendation Cards to the kids. These are cards that let you know how they did this season and if they should move up or stay in the level they are in. If you have any questions after receiving yours don’t hesitate to ask your coach, Coach Ty or myself.
PARENT WEEK Not this week, but the last week of the season, we will have parent week. This is for Hoppers and up. It is where your kids get to show you what they learned, play some of their favorite games with you and possibly scrimmage kids vs parents. Kids absolutely LOVE this week! I will have more details next week, but just giving you all a heads up!

NO CLASSES TG DAY There will be no classes on Thanksgiving Day, but there ARE classes all other days. If you are traveling and will miss your class, make sure to schedule your makeup class through you online account. Thursday customers paid one less day so they do not need to make up this week’s class.
MAKE-UPS I have had many customers utilize the new make-up feature on their online account this week for the very first time, which is so exciting! As I mentioned last week, this new feature will make things so much easier for you. You no longer have to wait to get in touch with us by phone or email to get your class made up! You can now log on to your account, go to the view where it shows all upcoming classes, and click “Make-Up” on the class you will be missing, and it will walk you through scheduling it. *Keep in mind, the system will not let you make up classes in the past, only future classes. For past classes you missed, you will still need to schedule your make-up the old fashioned way by emailing me to let me know.
WINTER 2 REGISTRATION OPEN!! We decided to open W2 registration yesterday! W2 is our biggest season, with the most customers, so we want our current customers to get first choice in those popular classes that fill up! W2 runs December 28 – March 15. W1 ends 21 and we take off 1 week for Christmas. I registered a lot of customers on Saturday!
EARLY BIRD IS BACK!! Being that the W2 season registration is during the holidays and that it’s an 11-12 wk season, we want to help you out, so we are bringing out Early Bird Deal back! All Mon-Fri AM classes get 2 classes off (-$36). Evening and Saturday classes get 1 class off (-$18). The deadline for this is December 14 and you must register in person or by phone to get the deal.

Winter 2 Lil Kickers is right around the corner, I can’t believe it!
We are opening registration extra early for this one – to ensure customers can get the class time/day they want before they fill up!
REGISTRATION will open this SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 23rd.
W2 will run 12/28 to 3/15.
And, our EARLY BIRD special is back! Winter 2 is our longest season of the year, so we want to help out a little bit and offer a discount for those that register early and help our customers out. This time we’re offering it to ALL CUSTOMERS – current/returning/new. So don’t wait! Here are the details…

After your free trial class, talk to us about registration and getting your Early Bird discount applied for W2.
Week 6 is here! Here’s what you need to know this week –
MAKEUP CLASSES I am very excited about another new feature we now have on your online account! You can now schedule your own makeup classes when you log onto your online account! This should make it so much easier for you because you do not have to email me about coming to a potential make-up class and then wait on my reply. And you no longer have to call either! You can simply log into your account and there will be a “Make-Up” option. It will allow you to choose the date and time that works best for you and schedule it, AND it will lett us know when you are coming. You can only look up classes two weeks out, so if you need a class for a later date than that, you’ll need to wait to schedule it. As always, make sure you get your classes made up within the current season!
JACKRABBITS/BIG FEET These classes have been working all season long to get the kids ready to scrimmage by playing more competitive games. This week, for the first time, the kids will be scrimmaging each other for the last 10 minutes of the class and will now do so for the remainder of the season. Remember, it’s a process! Most kids are not going to automatically know what to do and how. Coaches might spend a little extra time explaining the basics this week to make sure their players aren’t confused. Hopefully, players will get better week by week! And then be good to go by the last week when they get to play against their parents!
THANKSGIVING SOCCER CAMP Our next camp is next week! Ages 4-15 yo. Monday – Wednesday, either AM Camp 9am-12pm or PM Camp 1pm-4pm, or All Day Camp 9am-4pm. Early Bird pricing ends on Friday! Go here for details and to register! TG Camp

Here are things to know about week 5 at Lil kicker’s…
COTTONTAILS CLASSES If your player is new to a Cottontails class, this is the week coaches will be transitioning adults off, or to the side, of the field. Please know that it is not a requirement! We hope that the kids will be able to do classes without a parent or adult’s help and with their coach, but every kid is different, and some might take a bit longer than others. That is ok! If your player is struggling, feel free to hop up and help them if you feel they need it. Then, try again next week. I know some kids who transition just fine and others who might take a season or two!
MAKE UP PICTURE DAY Did you miss your picture day last week? We will have a make-up day this Saturday from 9:15 am to 12:30 pm. Feel free to stop on by even if you do not have a class that day. The photographer will be set up by F2, at the bottom of the stairs.
THANKSGIVING CAMP Our next camp is the Monday – Wednesday of Thanksgiving week. We have AM camp 9am-12pm, PM camp 1pm – 4pm, or all day camp 9am-4pm. The early bird discount for camp will end on 11/22. For more information and to register go here – TG Camp.

Lots of exciting things going on this week and beyond!
BRING A FRIEND WEEK Last week coaches handed out BAF cards at the end of class. If you did not get them, no worries! You can still bring a friend to class. Just have your friend stop by the desk or F4 booth to fill out a waiver before class. There are a few things to know. 1) The friend must be age appropriate. No 8 yo’s in a 2 yo Thumpers class, for example. However, the 8 yo is more than welcome to come to a Micro 8/9 class as the friend. 2) Classes that are full cannot bring friends, since they are already at capacity. However, you can bring your friend to a different class that is not full this week. Just let us know!
PICTURE WEEK There will be a photographer stationed at the bottom of the stairs between field’s 1 and 2 all week. If you want your player’s picture taken, I’d recommend coming early to class so they’re not late! Or staying after, of course. Payment is not required at the time the picture is taken! They will send you the photo, and once you see it, you can decide whether you want to purchase it or not.
FOLLOW US! We’ve posted some pictures from our Halloween week on our social platforms. Haven’t seen them? Follow us! This is a great way to follow what we’re doing each day, including important updates on days we might be closed, when registration is open, etc. Facebook and/or Instagram @SoccerCityOKC.

THANKSGIVING CAMP Our next soccer camp is coming up! TG week! November 25 – 27. This camp is so popular that we do require all 3 days (AM, PM or all day) and have a limited number of spots. For ages 4 to 15 yo. If interested, go here TG Camp
DRESS UP WEEK It’s been fun seeing the kid’s costumes this past Friday and Saturday. We’ve had some pretty fun coach’s costumes too! We will continue with dress up week this Monday through Thursday! Don’t forget to have the kids wear their costumes this week! And YES, we DO have class on Halloween AM and PM. If you normally have class on Thursday night and cannot make it this week, no worries! Just make it up on a different day/time this season.
BRING A FRIEND WEEK This week coaches will be handing out BAF cards to kids at the end of class. These cards can be used to invite a friend to class NEXT week. Classes that are full or close to full might not hand them out. But if you have a friend who wants to come, you can always bring them to a different class that is not close to capacity. Just ask us for the card!
WINTER 1 HOUSE TEAMS/LEAGUES Our Winter 1 indoor season starts next week! Nov 4. Team registration closes today, but if we still have spots, call us and we can still get your team in. If you don’t have a team but want to register an individual for a house team, spots are filling up fast! We have U6 all the way up. It’s $80 to play 8 games. See our website for details. House Teams To register, call to pay or pay in person. Teams will close once spots are full.
I hope everyone had a great first week of the Winter 1 season of LK! I’m going to start with the fun stuff first…
HALLOWEEN DRESS UP! Starting this FRIDAY, October 25, and every day after that, ending on THURSDAY, October 31, it is costume/dress up day! We encourage the kids to wear their Halloween costumes to class. This week is one of my favorite weeks of the year – getting to see the little 18 mo old’s dressed up, all the way to our 9 yo’s! I’ll try to send another reminder on Thursday!
– SHIN GUARDS: Remember, if your player is in a Jackrabbits/Big Feet/Micro class, they need to wear shin guards to class. These classes are either scrimmaging each week or playing more competitive games, such as 1v1’s, etc., so shin guards are necessary.
– HANDICAP / STROLLER ENTRANCE: Any parents looking to avoid the stairs in our facility, we have one entrance without stairs to the Southwest. The doors are in our Breezeway that connects our buildings together and can be accessed by parking to the westernmost side of our facility and then strolling to the south. There are handicap parking spots on the west side of the building as well. If you need better explanation you can call us or come in person and we can show you.
– WINTER 1 HOUSE TEAMS: Want to join a team? Our W1 indoor season starts the week of 11/4 and registration is open! U6 and up. Call to pay or pay in person to get on a team. See details on our website. House Teams
Lil Kickers Winter 1 season at SoccerCity OKC BEGINS THIS WEEK! We are so excited to coach your players- whether it be returning familiar faces, or brand new kids we get to meet and spend the next 10 weeks getting to know!
Each week I send basic information via email on Sunday or Monday preparing you on what to know as the season progresses and as different things go on at the facility. For this first email, I am going to lightly touch on basic things to know for your first time in the facility and first week of the season!
– WHERE TO GO: All classes are at our indoor facility SoccerCity OKC in NW OKC on NW 122nd and Meridian, hidden in the neighborhood Summerfield. Our exact address is 4520 Old Farm Road. Once at the facility, if you are in an AM class you can go down the main stairs to see us at the front desk, where we will get you checked in and give you a jersey if you need one. For all PM classes continue to the very back to field 4 where you can find us in the booth. Call us at 405-748-3888 if you have any issues finding us!
– WHAT TO BRING: Have your player in fun play clothes and sneakers or cleats. Bring a drink for water breaks. Kids in Jackrabbits, Big Feet, Micro 4/5, Micro 6/7, Micro 8/9, and Micro Advanced need to have shin guards. Kids in Bunnies, Thumpers, and Cottontails will need a parent on the field- so I would suggest you also wear something comfortable and sneakers if you are the parent on the field for your child. ***I highly suggest being 5-10 minutes early, not only in case of a line at the front desk when checking in, but also to meet your coach and get your player comfortable in the facility before class starts. So many kids start off their season with anxiety because they show up late and see their class full of kids has already started!***
– WEEKDAY MORNING CLASSES: Some weekday morning classes only have 1 child enrolled. For those classes I have sent or will be sending the families an email to see if they can move to another day or time to be with other kids, or combine with a different class level. All morning classes will always be on Field 1.
– WEEKDAY EVENING CLASSES: All evening classes will always be on Field 4, there is an information kiosk by the field that we can help you at.
– SATURDAY MORNING CLASSES: There are so many kids on Saturdays we usually use 3 of our fields at each hour- Field 1, 2, and 4. We also have so many for some classes that we split the classes in half and offer two options with their own coaches of those classes. If we split your level and you find that you are not in the same class as a friend, please let us know and we can move you. I will send Saturday customers a Saturday specific email on Friday breaking down the classes and locations.
– HANDICAP / STROLLER ENTRANCE: Any parents looking to avoid the stairs in our facility, we have one entrance without stairs to the Southwest. The doors are in our Breezeway that connects our buildings together and can be accessed by parking to the westernmost side of our facility and then strolling to the south. There are handicap parking spots on the west side of the building as well. If you need better explanation you can call us or come in person and we can show you.
This is our last week of the Fall LK season and it’s Parent Week!
PARENT WEEK This is for Hoppers, Jackrabbits, Big Feet and Micro classes only. The kids get to show off all they learned through the season this last class by playing some of their favorite games and scrimmage with or against their parent/aunt/uncle/nanny/etc. You can have an older sibling play in your place if they are careful with the younger kids and do not dominate in the games. If you are playing on the field please be careful, keep the ball on the ground. We don’t want anyone hurt if it can be avoided.
WINTER 1 Our Winter 1 season starts next Monday! The season will run through December 21. Popular classes are starting to fill up, so if you have not registered yet and need to, I would do that soon! And many of you have taken advantage of our new/better discount of take 2 classes and get the 2nd one half off, so that’s great!
MAKE-UP CLASSES If you missed a class and need it made up this is the last week to do it! We do not allow make-up classes to be made up in a future season. To pick a class, go to our website and find out fall schedule. Come to any class that is not in RED. Those are closed because they are full. And then, when you arrive, let us know you are making up a class.
FALL BREAK CAMP Our Fall Break Camp will be 10/17, 10/18, 10/21. We will have AM, PM and All Day camp on those days. Our camps are super popular and many have “sold out” in the last year or so. So, if you are thinking of enrolling your player, I wouldn’t wait much longer! Go to the website to register. Early Bird prices are NOW. Prices will increase after 10/14.
WINTER 1 HOUSE TEAMS/LEAGUE We just opened up registration for our Winter 1 indoor season for outside teams and individual house team players. House teams are mostly beginner players with some intermediate mixed in and are recreational. They are coached by our top LK coaches! This season will run 11/2 – 1/5. House teams are $80 for 8 games. To register, call to pay or pay in person. Online registration for that is not quite up on the website yet, but will be soon. We have leagues for U6 all the way up!
There are 2 more weeks left of this Fall season! It’s flying by!
RECOMMENDATION CARDS This week, coaches will be handing out Recommendation Cards to all the kids at the end of each class. These cards are our way to communicate which class your player should be in next season based off of how they are currently doing this season. If you have any questions about them, do not hesitate to talk to your coach about it!
WINTER 1 The new season starts in 2 weeks – October 14th! Popular class times are filling up, so don’t wait! Register online or in person. I’ve had many people choose to use the new sibling discount of $30 off and 2 class discount of 1/2 off this upcoming season. *The 1/2 off discount for 2 classes does not populate when you register online, so if you want that discount, please call or register in person. We will not give a refund if you register online and do not use this discount.
FALL BREAK CAMP Our next camp is fast approaching. We will have a camp on October 17, 18, and 21. 9am – 4pm is full day, and 9am-12pm is AM camp, 1pm-4pm is PM camp. Prices and registration can be found on our website. For this camp, we are not making players register for all 3 days. You can register for 1 half day if you want to! Again, see the entire breakdown on our website. These camps have gotten so popular in the past year they do tend to sell out, so don’t wait!
PARENT WEEK Every season, the last week of the season, we have Parent Week for Hoppers and above. This is where non-parent/child class players get to show off what they learned all season and parents get to participate in some of the games. The kids love showing off their new skills! I will share more details about this week in my next weekly email.
Here are WEEK 7’s Things to Know…

– Sibling discounts will no longer be 1 class off for each sibling. It will now be $30 off the second sibling, $40 off the third, etc. If you have 3 or more players to register, you must register in person or by phone to get this discount!

COTTONTAILS/JACKRABBITS/BIG FEET Last week and this week coaches will start running 10-minute scrimmages in all Jackrabbits and Big Feet classes. These classes have been progressing all season to get to this point! Be proud of your kids! They have worked hard and coaches will continue to work with them on the basic concepts of the game. In Cottontails, coaches have or will start to transition parents to the side, or completely off, the field. Please remember, this is a process, and can take time! It may not work for you the first, second, third week – or even this season at all! If you have to jump back on the field to help your player, please do so! Every kid develops in different stages and coaches will be flexible with their child development.

A few things to know about this upcoming week 3 of Lil Kicker’s Fall season!
– BRING A FRIEND WEEK! – Last week your player should have received a Bring a Friend card at the end of their class from their coach. If they did not, no worries! They can still bring a friend this week if they have one. There are a few things to know about BAF week.
1) Friends trying out a class need to stop by the desk first and sign a waiver!
2) Classes that are full are closed to BAF. These are classes with 12 or more. However, if you have a friend you’re more than welcome to bring them to a class that is not full for this week.
3) And something I forgot to mention last week, but that’s really important! Make sure the friend is age appropriate for that class. For example, do not bring a 9 year old to a Thumpers class (2 yo). You can, however, have that 9 yo come to a micro 8/9 class this week for free.
(And a little secret…if your friend cannot make it this week, they can still come on a later week in the season!)
If you have any questions about this don’t hesitate to ask!
– NO CLASSES ON 9/30, 9/31 & 9/2 – We will not have any LK classes on these days! If your player is in one of these classes you were charged 1 less class than a T/W/R class, so there is no need to schedule a make-up!
– HANDICAP / STROLLER ENTRANCE: It has come to my attention that maybe some customers are using the Stroller Parking when they do not have strollers. Or maybe some cars have the Handicap sign on their car but are parking in the Stroller parking. Just please make sure you are only parking in the Stroller Parking if you have a stroller, and same with the Handicap parking. We have numerous families that attend classes with multiple kids, and I’m sure it’s frusterating when that parking is taken by those abusing it. So please be conscientious of that.
We made it to week 2! I’m more congratulating myself and Ty for getting through our first week running the program, lol! But I also thank you, our customers, for your patience and understanding. We may have been later than we would have liked on returning a few emails/calls due to the transition, but we will always do our best to reply within 24 hours.
– BRING A FRIEND: This week coaches will be handing out Bring a Friend cards to all the kids at the end of each class. NEXT WEEK – week 3 – we will have “Bring a Friend” week where the kids are allowed to bring a friend to class. You can use these cards to hand to your friends. Simply fill it out and give it to a friend, and they will have all the information. Some classes during the week are full. If your player is in one of those classes and you have a friend to bring, you will need to come to a different class that week – one that is not full. Don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you need some class time options!
– Shin Guards: Don’t forget! If your player is in a Jackrabbits, Big Feet or any of the Micro classes the will need to wear shin guards. All other classes it is no required, but they can if they want to.
– HANDICAP / STROLLER ENTRANCE: Any parents looking to avoid the stairs in our facility, we have one entrance without stairs to the Southwest. The doors are in our Breezeway that connects our buildings together and can be accessed by parking to the westernmost side of our facility and then strolling to the south. There are handicap parking spots on the west side of the building as well. If you need better explanation you can call us or come in person and we can show you.
Lil Kickers Fall season at SoccerCity OKC BEGINS THIS WEEK! We are so excited to coach your players- whether it be returning familiar faces, or brand new kids we get to meet and spend the next 9 weeks getting to know!
Returning customers should have received an email from our previous LK Director, Hayden. He did an amazing job directing and growing this program the last decade, but has moved on to try something new. We will miss him and wish him the best! Coach Ty and I will be taking over for him. Many of you know Coach Ty. Maybe he coached one of your players! He has been a LK Coach for over 12 years and knows the program well. I have coached for 8 years and have run our House Teams program for most of that time. We are excited to lead this program together and know we have big shoes to fill!
Each week I send basic information via email on Monday preparing you on what to know as the season progresses and as different things go on at the facility. For this first email, I am going to lightly touch on basic things to know for your first time in the facility and first week of the season!
– WHERE TO GO: All classes are at our indoor facility SoccerCity OKC in NW OKC on NW 122nd and Meridian, hidden in the neighborhood Summerfield. Our exact address is 4520 Old Farm Road. Once at the facility, you can go down the main stairs to see us at the front desk, where we will get you checked in and give you a jersey if you need one. Call us at 405-748-3888 if you have any issues finding us!
– WHAT TO BRING: Have your player in fun play clothes and sneakers. Bring a drink for water breaks. Kids in Jackrabbits, Big Feet, Micro 4/5, Micro 6/7, Micro 8/9, and Micro Advanced need to have shin guards. Kids in Bunnies, Thumpers, and Cottontails will need a parent on the field- so I would suggest you also wear something comfortable and sneakers if you are the parent on the field for your child. ***I highly suggest being 5-10 minutes early, not only in case of a line at the front desk when checking in, but also to meet your coach and get your player comfortable in the facility before class starts. So many kids start off their season with anxiety because they show up late and see their class full of kids has already started!***
– WEEKDAY MORNING CLASSES: Some weekday morning classes only have 1 child enrolled. For those classes I have sent or will be sending the families an email to see if they can move to another day or time to be with other kids, or combine with a different class level. All morning classes will always be on Field 1.
– WEEKDAY EVENING CLASSES: All evening classes will always be on Field 4, there is an information kiosk by the field that we can help you at.
– SATURDAY MORNING CLASSES: There are so many kids on Saturdays we usually use 3 of our fields at each hour- Field 1, 2, and 4. We also have so many for some classes that we split the classes in half and offer two options with their own coaches of those classes. If we split your level and you find that you are not in the same class as a friend, please let us know and we can move you. I will send Saturday customers a Saturday specific email on Friday breaking down the classes and locations.
– HANDICAP / STROLLER ENTRANCE: Any parents looking to avoid the stairs in our facility, we have one entrance without stairs to the Southwest. The doors are in our Breezeway that connects our buildings together and can be accessed by parking to the westernmost side of our facility and then strolling to the south. There are handicap parking spots on the west side of the building as well. If you need better explanation you can call us or come in person and we can show you.
