U4-U6 Active Start

Active Start Stage of Development:

This age group will meet once a week, in groups of 8-10 players. Teams will play together, led by volunteer coaches - predominantly parents - with support from club-provided session plans and staff. Sessions include the ABCs of physical literacy & fun soccer-based activities in a small group format on club-built fields in the north end of London; one in the east & one in the west.

As a cooperatively run not-for-profit community club, all our teams require volunteers.
Contact us if you are interested in coaching your player's team at icoach@norwestsoccer.com all other inquiries must go to info@norwestsoccer.com.

Active Start Fields:

U4-U6 choose from our East location or West location during registration for Saturday mornings:

East Field

Behind Stoneycreek Baptist Church
2225 Highbury Rd just north of Fanshawe Pk. Rd.

West Field

Behind West Park Church
955 Gainsborough Rd. just south of Fanshawe Pk. Rd.

Under 6 Game Fields:

Field use for U6 and up is always dependent on registration. We have co-opted to build three fields specific to the Canada Soccer standards for this age group. All three fields may be used during our season. We like to assign players' Home fields closer to their postal code; this can usually be arranged if U6 registration requires more than one field on game nights.

Hastings Park

Nor'West Optimist Park

University (Coombs) Park

*Coaches may email icoach@norwestsoccer.com for a January (only) early access discount code if they are curious or ready to commit!

We try hard not to change the outline above, but final division schedules are determined by player registrations annually and sometimes necessitate changes. Late player registrations can mean spring schedule changes.
We aim to publish full schedules the week of May 1st annually
in your PowerUp Member Zone Calendar.
