The Ocean City Nor'easters' have teamed up with the New Jersey Surf Soccer Academy to introduce the 2020 Fall Recreation program, now known as the "Ocean City Nor'easters Junior Academy - powered by Surf Soccer".

Open to all players from Pre-K to 2nd grade, our Junior Academy is split into two unique programs and is designed to provide players the opportunity to enjoy a safe, structured and fun learning environment that will engage, educate and enhance their passion for soccer.

Our Little Kickers Program is for players born in 2016 & 2015
* Players born in the year 2016 are in soccer terms ‘age group U-5’
* Players born in the year 2015 are in soccer terms ‘age group U-6’

Our Junior Kickers Program is for players born in 2014 & 2013
* Players born in the year 2014 are in soccer terms ‘age group U-7’
* Players born in the year 2015 are in soccer terms ‘age group U-6’

Both the Little Kickers and Junior Kickers program will have an age-specific curriculum designed to focus on ball mastery, technical moves, key motor skills and to develop early stages of soccer awareness. Our training will focus on the player’s soccer development in small-sided games that maximizes interactions and touches on the ball, with lots of goal scoring, passing and dribbling opportunities.

We hope our Junior Academy will be the player’s first step on our player progression pathway and lead to the formation of travel soccer teams at the Under-9 level.

All sessions will be lead by the Ocean City Nor'easters Surf Soccer Professional Coaching Staff.

Our coaching staff will be following the New Jersey Youth Soccer ‘COVID Return to Play’ guidelines and protocol.
