#MotivationalMonday - Once again, #DreamBig! has come through for our girls! The What’s App messages were flooding with 📸's and nice messages of congratulations between players and parents, sharing the experiences of those selected for Dream Big!'s Sports Attire Giveaway, going into Boston, and picking out equipment & gear that will help them with their sports goals. These players selected deserve this awesome support, and again, it reminds us of the #teameffort approach to improving girls' sports pathways! #TY from the bottom of our ❤️, and here’s a shoutout to the sponsors & donors making it possible behind the scenes. #ItTakesAVillage. See Dream Big!'s post about this special opp. #youthsports #girlsinsports #teameffort #partnershipsmatter #feelinggrateful #feelingmotivated #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙🎽

#SpecialSundayShare - The courts are filled again

#SpecialSundayShare - The courts are filled again today for the last day of indoor futsal, and to recognize players’ efforts and great attitudes, #CoachMentors, Melissa and Andrea treated some of the Gr. 7 & 8 Wolverines to a post-session ice cream🍦outing! This trip was 100% Coach Mentor driven, tying into the significance of those off-the-court connections and mentoring that continue to be a #differencemaker! A few siblings joined in, too! We think they’re having a blast, don’t you?🙂 #offthefield #offthecourt #youthdevelopment #throughsports #team #outings #beyondsoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

It’s program #ShiftingSaturday (& Sunday), as the winter or #offseason futsal wraps up this weekend and turns into spring. In true #BeyondSoccer fashion, our team has a one-day break between our off-season shifting 😊 to spring outdoor soccer or the kickoff of Lawrence Youth Soccer. This ongoing activity is only possible because of the support and care of our #CoachMentors, who ensure these quick transitions, so young peoples’ play and team connections are not interrupted. (📷's from 1st group!) #keepplaying #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #offseason #inseason #notimeoff #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

#TMinusSevenDaysThursday until #BeyondSoccer’s spring outdoor season starts! Next Wednesday, the #LawrenceYouthSoccer travel teams will officially take the field. Oh, wait, for the first time-ever, we haven’t gotten off the fields! 💪Here are some 📸 & 🎥's of young people playing on the @riverwalkpavilion field last night, enjoying their go-to #circleup! To say this access has been a game-changer is a broken-record #gamechanger! #facilitiesmatter #playmatters #youthsports #LawrenceYouthSoccer #EsssexCountyYOuthSoccer #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #SBYD #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

#WellnessWedneday –To move the needle when it comes to improving the health of our community, it must be a team effort. At the Arlington School (📷's from yesterday’s futsal), we are not the only ones bringing sports to kids where they are.

Groups like Serving Stars, Everyone's A Player (teaching🎾to 50 kids), plus a handful of baseball/softball leaders ⚾️🥎 (part of Lawrence Sports Alliance) are focused on increasing participation, especially for girls, through more #sportssampling. Yes, we give each other high fives🤚, but it does not stop there. Much more work must be done to continue fueling those sports interests #beyond school walls through more low-cost, accessible play.

We look forward to those efforts and working with school leadership! #youthsports #recreation #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunties #play #connection #access #mentorship #partnership #teamwork #LawrenceMA #BeyondSoccer 🧡💙⚽️

Here’s a #MondayMashup of 📷's from the weekend’s futsal festivities at the #YWCA. There was lots of learning, listening, leading, and laughing.😃 Soccer Director Chris, as you can see in many of the pics, spent 20 hours on courts, and is super encouraged that the sessions have grown weekly, which is a great sign for spring, which is here! #happyspring #youthsports #healthykids #healthycommunities #play #move #team #coachmentots #LawrenceMA #BeyondSoccer ⚽️🧡💙

We can't quite distinguish what this Kindergarten group shouted after their futsal session-ending circle-up 😊, but we can tell they had another fun and engaging #SoccerSaturday with lots of play. We also love seeing long-time #CoachMentors Melissa & William, with high school seniors Andrea and Ayesha from Lawrence, on the court, leading the charge and ensuring we have great player-coach ratios! That’s key, especially with these young age groups.

#TBT to fall’s #LawrenceYouthSoccer Season. Why

#TBT to fall’s #LawrenceYouthSoccer Season. Why are we sharing these 📷? Because the spring season is right around the corner! It also means we’re busy forming teams, securing fields, and communicating with families while maintaining our current winter futsal, in-school, off-the-field fitness, and Academic Overtime programs. Thankfully, our #CoachMentors continue to step up, so we will be #GTG for the relaunch (for travel players, the week of March 27th and April 10th for city league players)

More to share as we prep for our 1st round of Essex County Youth Soccer games Saturday, April 9th. In the meantime, enjoy these smiles that capture all the good that comes from sports and recreation! #youthsports #healthykids #happkids #healthyfamilies #healthycommunites #playmatters #beyondsoccer ⚽️🧡💙

#TimeLapseTuesday – We ask our #CoachMentors to capture 📷s of the program activities, but in most cases, they’re super busy on the courts, instructing, mentoring, and bringing the ball back into play. 😄That’s why it’s great when parents share 📸's & 📹's on our What’s App Team pages of the session activities. Here’s one fun example shared by a parent from our Saturday morning Cubs practice full of PreK & Kindergarten kids, which was taken to the next level with a timelapse app. It really captures all the movement, play, and learning! #thankyou #teameffort #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #happyfamilies #community #youthdevelopment #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

#SundayShare – Here’s a mashup of 📷s from yesterday’s #futsal sessions following our early AM coaching course! This all-day play at the #YWCA meant lots of running, moving, and mentoring. We were especially pleased that a handful of high school players got involved with our youngest groups, volunteering as junior coaches. As our numbers continue to grow, those roles are invaluable for so many reasons. #leadershipthroughsports 💪 Next up, most of our girls’ age groups take to the courts today!

#SaturdayShare-Before today’s busy futsal, we hosted a #USSoccer Grassroots 9v9 course in Lawrence. @mayouthsoccer Tommy G. led the course for a great group, including a handful of our #CoachMentors-Director Chris, too.

This 2-part series ties into efforts to ensure those leading young people have more tools to be influential leaders, mentors & teachers. Chris shared that reminders to present questions that aren’t designed to get immediate answers but create more chances for youth to work through solutions resonated. Coaches shouldn't just provide answers but provide positive, consistent platforms for interactive learning and self-discovery through sports. We agree! #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #youthdevelopment #throughsports #mentorship #play #connection #learning #teamwork #problemsolving #partnershipsmatter ⚽🧡💙

#WinningWednesday “Turning my dreams into realit

#WinningWednesday “Turning my dreams into reality, and I know it didn’t turn out to be soccer, but I grew and learned so much from it and the #BeyondSoccer family, and I just wanted to thank you for the support from the start.” -K

The ⬆️text we received from alum Katherine, w/this @emmanuelcollege highlight of her efforts, earning “The Smile Architect” w/ambitions to put her dental skills to use through travel & continuing her education in the Tufts mentorship program.

As shared, Katherine joined our 2014 Her'rricanes team. Now a college senior, she returned as a summer #CoachMentor. Her ability to positively influence younger players was obvious and resulted in her leading the Gr. 8 Wolverines last fall. Katherine earned her coaching stipend while working PT in the dental office, staying committed to her classes while serving as an RA (see📷's). Her involvement epitomizes our engagement strategy. It’s a #gamechanger & Katherine is now #gamechanging! 🧡💙⚽️

Parents and #CoachMentors shared many 🎥's on the What’s App chats like this over the weekend of the 1st & 2nd-grade boys group. We couldn’t resist sharing it to provide some #MondayMotivation and smiles. It captures how sports help young kids learn discipline and how to work with others, like during this "Dragon Tails" warmup teambuilder, with some (needed 😊) mentorship by Director Chris, whom we hear encouraging in the background. #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #happyfamilies #sportsbased #youthdevelopment #teamwork #play #connection #mentorship #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

#SundaySportsShare – The snow ❄️ hasn’t slowed us down, with hundreds of kids coming and going all day yesterday and today, with our committed #CoachMentors always organizing opening & closing circle-ups (or half circles😀) during each session like these 📸'd here. They are essential for good communication and team building. It’s where questions are asked, session goals are set, and good effort and attitudes are reinforced and recognized. #sportsbased #youthdevelopment #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #Allin #circleup #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA #teameffort ⚽️🧡💙

#SaturdayShare – It was a special night after a busy week with #CoachMentor Will Inirio and Director Chris hosting a #FridayNight get-together for the high school boys who have been so dedicated to their winter sessions. It included FIFA Xbox 🎮gaming in the BeyondFIT space and competitive ping pong🏓 matches thanks to a new table donated by long-time #BeyondSoccer friends, the Budrewicz fam. Skill work and pizza🍕, too, to cap off the evening. These special get-togethers make play even better, plus more memorable and meaningful too! #team #youthdevelopment #offthefield #facilitiesmatter #play #connection #coachmentors #comrarderie #beyondsoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

We’re back #TogetherThursday in the Arlington Sc

We’re back #TogetherThursday in the Arlington Schools after school vacation week, and a Tuesday snowstorm ❄️ disrupted our program plans! This is a great school community with wonderful leaders who embrace the importance and power of sports, especially their positive influence on academics. In addition to our twice-weekly futsal sessions, other sports partners like #ServingStars provide tennis. Softball was just added too. As you can see, these students want to move, and many will also start moving into our Lawrence Youth Soccer programs! #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #schoolpartners #schoolsports #LawrenceMA ⚽️🥎🎾🧡💙

We’re feeling #MondayMotivated after a busy week

We’re feeling #MondayMotivated after a busy weekend of activity and want to harness the energy of this Grade 6 Bulldogs group from their weekend futsal session. #CoachMentor Daria said it was a great, high-energy session, extending the practice time by an extra hour. The Grade 5 & 6 girls now play from 4-6 pm! One of our favorite things to do is to extend play...so here’s to more opportunities to extend play, especially for girls. #GirlsInSports #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #yearround #youthdevelopment #throughsports #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

#FlashbackFriday to our busy, pre-storm ❄️ Wed

#FlashbackFriday to our busy, pre-storm ❄️ Wednesday night sessions that got hundreds of Lawrence youth playing outdoors @PavilionatRiverwalk in low 40-degree weather! Indoors too, in #BeyondFIT, as we make full use of every space, we can get access! It’s awesome to see all the busy What’s App Team Chats as players and parents respond “In” to their #CoachMentors that they are ready to play and move with their teammates! We’re #Allin, too, for more play, programs, and sports facilities to make that happen! #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthyfamilies #yearroundplay #facilitiesmatter #playmatters #youthdevelopment #throughsports #BeyondSoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙

It’s a #WinningWednesday when our #AcademicOvertime space comes to life in the afternoons! Here’s an action 📸 of a different sort! It’s learning in action thanks to PT Enrichment Coordinator Will Inirio’s work, coordinating the moving parts so a group of wonderful @merrimackcollege students provides extra academic support to #BeyondSoccer student-athletes, Monday-Thursday! #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunities #sportsbasedyouthdevelopment #offthefield #alumninetwork #MC #collegepartnerships #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙📘

Here’s a #MondayMashup of photos from a weekend full of futsal & soccer, and as highlighted in our #SaturdayShare, important #HBD celebrations too! Despite some sessions not running because of a known #YWCA pre-scheduled event, a group of a dozen plus committed #CoachMentors still led 15 hours of weekend activities, including the high schoolers outside again on the Pavilion at Riverwalkturf field. #youthsports #healthykids #happykids #healthycommunites #yearround #play #connection #mentorship #beyondsoccer #LawrenceMA ⚽️🧡💙
