Soccer SideKicks delivers developmental soccer programs for young children across the Atlanta metro area, with classes and leagues designed for ages 18 months through 6 years. The organization combines soccer skill-building with songs, stories, imaginative play, and early childhood learning techniques, delivered entirely by background-checked, CPR-certified, early-childhood-trained coaches.
Three core program formats are offered. Mommy and Me sessions run 30 minutes and are designed for ages 18 to 24 months, using music, bubbles, and ball play to introduce movement and coordination through parent-child interaction. Sidekicks Classes are 45-minute weekly sessions and weekend leagues for children ages 2 through 6, integrating soccer fundamentals with a curriculum built around Spot the Ball, the organization’s anthropomorphic soccer ball character used across storytelling and play-based drills. Nike-powered Summer Camps serve children ages 4 through 12 in half-day formats scheduled for June 15 through 19 and July 13 through 17, 2026, priced at $250 per week or $430 for both weeks combined.
Programs operate across more than 12 Atlanta neighborhoods, including Buckhead, Brookhaven, Decatur, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, East Cobb, and Midtown. Soccer SideKicks partners with local schools and daycares to provide free classes to enrolled students at partner institutions. Need-based scholarships are also available for qualifying families seeking access to programming.
Participants are expected to bring comfortable athletic clothing, sneakers, a water bottle, and a snack; soccer balls and all program props are provided by the organization. Coaches undergo annual background checks and hold first-aid and CPR certification in addition to their early childhood education training.
The organization has received coverage in International Business Times and USA Today. Franchise opportunities are available for those interested in bringing the Soccer SideKicks model to new markets. The company emphasizes that its programs build confidence, coordination, and social development alongside introductory athletic skills, serving as an early enrichment activity for families across the Atlanta area seeking structured activity for toddlers and young children.
