About Us
KAFK, also known as 'Kicks Are For Kids' soccer program, began its establishment in the year 2012 in the Washington, DC area with a small group of 30 participants, which later turned into roughly 300 hundred participants 2 years later, and we have been growing since due to word-of-mouth from our satisfied customers. Our program first started its focus on offering tots soccer classes ages 2-3 and as the players grew, we grew as well by offering more challenging soccer courses for older age groups (ages 4-5 & 6-8) while keeping it fun and exciting for children. We make sure all our fun drills and games are age appropriate for each age group. After that, we offer private lessons or group training and players also have the opportunity to participate in our competitive teams by try-outs or invited. We offer our program to all children, no matter their background, as we believe all children deserve the same opportunity in life and, for us, soccer is our way to engage our community by bringing children together.
Our Mission
Our mission is to reach children of all communities and engage them in the lovely game of soccer.
Our Vision
We endeavor to become one of the world's leading youth soccer academy that helps children discover their best potential with the ability to track & report their development for a better understanding of their progression, as we aim to partner with other great institutions both domestically and internationally to offer our members the best options and resources.
