Kids’ soccer registration extended to April 13
Registration for Sorauren Kid’s Soccer ages 4 to 9 has been extended to Thursday, April 13! Established over 20 years ago the Sorauren Park Sports program is a fun and easygoing soccer program. Participants enjoy playing a soccer game each week and make a friend or two. There are no practices with the all-game soccer program.
Games run weekly through May and June with start times at 6 pm and 7 pm depending on the league. (Start times on the poster are misleading; please contact volunteer league coordinator Liz Leason – liz.leason@rogers.com / 416-697-5902 with any questions.)
