PQ Rec Soccer is for children from age 3 through 14. The coaches are parent volunteers who are trained by the San Diego Soccer Club professional coaching staff. Our program is designed to introduce and teach age-appropriate technical and tactical skills in an environment that will foster an appreciation and enjoyment of the game.
PQ Tots Division ages 3+ (co-ed): One hour of instruction by our very own San Diego Soccer Club Competitive Coaches each Saturday from 9-10am. No mid-week practices.
Boys and girls ages 4-14: These ages have separate teams for girls and boys. Practices are held 1-2 times weekly between 60-90 minutes. Locations and times are at the coaches’ discretion at one of our local elementary school fields within Poway Unified School District. All coaches are parent volunteers.

Coaching Perks and Information
Coaches also are able to select their child’s jersey number, pick practice days and receive support from the Recreational Directors, most importantly they spend some fun time on the field with the kids and meet new families!
One of the benefits of coaching is getting to select when and where to hold practices (in most cases). A coach will have one or two practices per week between 60-90 minutes each between the hours of 4:30 and 8:30pm either at a local park or school within our district.
