Soccer

DNA Soccer

Sporting Iowa East has partnered with the TBK Bank Sports Complex ‘DNA’ Program to present Discovery soccer, which is our foundational program.  It introduces 4U – 8U players to the game of soccer, and teaches the game in a fun non-competitive environment to foster a passion for soccer. The program focuses on individual player development using engaging drills and short-sided games. Coach to player ratio is kept small to maximize individual interaction with these young players. All activities are held at the TBK Bank Sports Complex. Discovery soccer programming is available in the fall, winter, spring, and summer seasons.
