I’m Soccer is the world’s game, a universal language that brings children and families together across cultures, neighborhoods, and backgrounds. As part of this year’s historic Westgate Bean Dinner Festival, we are thrilled to offer a FREE, fun, and recreational 3v3 youth soccer experience for children ages 8 and under!
AGE EXCEPTION: NOTE: This is generally for children age 8 and under, If 9-10 year olds want to sign up, please identify 6-7 other 9-10 year olds you want to play with at the same time and field. Have them individually sign up too
Our goal is simple: create a welcoming environment where children from all of our west side communities, including our growing Somali and Hispanic communities, can play, laugh, learn, and build new friendships together through sports.
