# # # Soccer Shots classes teach more than just soccer skills. We incorporate teamwork, self-esteem, and healthy living habits, making the program especially appealing to parents and school directors. It is the life skills aspect of Soccer Shots plus the unique and creative curriculum that makes us stand out from the competitors.

The founders, Jason Webb and Jeremy Sorzano, met as soccer teammates in college and played professionally. Both men wanted to share their love of soccer and their knowledge gained from years of youth coaching. Together they shaped a curriculum that was unique, creative, & focused on the developmental needs of young children. Soccer Shots was born.

Jeremy started the Soccer Shots program in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Jason opened in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. They offered soccer classes to preschools, daycare centers, and after-school programs. It was a niche market of classes for children ages 3 to 8 that introduces them to the world's greatest game: soccer!
