Soccer at Trinity Lime Rock
We have a really popular soccer program for the young people of our community that operates during the summer months.

About our soccer program:
| We started it back in 2005 (you
can read the story of how the program started here)
-- at that time, it was
basically just for the kids in our Sunday School. During the summer of 2006, our second year, some kids from the neighborhood, and some kids who had only occasionally been seen at Trinity started showing up. We also realized what a wealth of soccer talent (both coaching and playing) we had at Trinity. And we learned to appreciate our eight acre, flat, well-drained soccer field more and more. Sometime during the winter after our second season, it became clear to us that summer soccer was something we needed to do for the entire community. |
|
| Our third summer soccer season, 2007, proved it. We had a total of 96 participants in the program, and the majority of the participants had no previous connection with Trinity Church at all. |
|
Summer soccer at Trinity on Sunday mornings has become a community institution in the Northwest Corner, and we are really happy to be able to provide it.
We think that summer 2008 will be even more successful. We're getting out information about summer soccer 2008 earlier, and we're going to explore the possibility of also doing soccer sessions during the week, probably in the early evening.

Summer Soccer at Trinity begins in early June and ends in late August, traditionally followed on the last day by "Sundae Sunday" during hospitality hour. |
How summer soccer at Trinity got started:Back in 2005, one girl asked what she and the other kids would be doing once Sunday School ended for the school year. She thought that soccer might be a good activity. She may have been a little bit surprised that we did, but we took her suggestion. Now, we realize how inspired her suggestion really was. |

The program will begin on June 8 and the final Sunday session will be
August 24. We will probably have "Sundae Sunday" following soccer that
day. We start at 10 AM on Sundays, and stop promptly at 11:15 so
those who wish to do so can attend Communion at the church.
If we decide to do a session during the week, we will probably do it Wednesday evenings, beginning at 5:30 and ending at 7 PM, and we'll probably do it during July and August. There is no charge for participation in summer soccer at Trinity.
We promise that sooner or later we'll do a new video that includes our 2007 season, but meanwhile, check out our 2006 Summer Soccer video -- we made this one in February 2007, starring our own Trinity Field (in the winter) and our Summer 2006 participants!
