Hello! This group is for kids (and their parents!) who are 5-8 years old, and who love playing soccer! (Or just for those wanting to play for the first time:) The idea to create this group originally came about because of my son (7) who currently plays once a week, but who would love to play more often with kids his age! So I thought why not create a meetup group. While currently the group is geared to kids his age, but in time I might expand the age range. While I will start by creating events …
