Program Spotlight: Small Fry Soccer


One of the most in demand programs for the Haverford Township Recreation Department is Small Fry Soccer.  Small Fry Soccer is a great program for Parents that are looking for organized activities to engage in with their child.  Parents and Children get a chance to partcipate in different games and activities related to soccer.  The goal of the program is not to make children a soccer star, but instead introduce them to a sport and allow them to have fun while doing different activities with a soccer.  Parent participation is crucial to the program, because it allows children at that age to overcome any shyness or anxiety they may have and just enjoy playing the different games with their mom or dad (or grandparent).

John Turner is currently running the Summer Session of Small Fry.  John is a Kindergarten teacher in a local school district and has been involved in the Recreation Departments Soccer Programs for the past few years.  John has also worked numerous other programs for the Recreation Department and is a Site Leader for our Playground Program at Paddock Park.  When asked about why he enjoys coordinating Small Fry John responded with "Watching the parents play and have as much fun as the kids makes the program extremely rewarding."
