Programs

At Halifax County United, our programs are designed to nurture players at every stage, from grassroots enjoyment to elite competition. At HCU you will find excellent coaching, a supportive environment, and a clear pathway for growth.

Many HCU programs operate out of the BMO Soccer Centre indoor fields and outdoor turf fields adjacent to that complex, we also offer community programs within our catchment area of Larry Uteck, Kingswood, Tantallon, Timberlea, and Prospect Rd.

SPRING PROGRAMS

Program Description:
U3–U5 Micro’s Spring
Soccer Program | 3 Weeks
Our U3–U5 Micro’s Spring Soccer Program is the perfect introduction to soccer for our youngest players. Designed to be fun, active, and engaging, this program focuses on building a love for the game through movement, play, and positive social interaction.
Each session is game-based and age-appropriate, helping children develop fundamental movement skills such as running, jumping, balance, and coordination, while gently introducing basic soccer skills like dribbling and kicking. Sessions are led by experienced coaches in a safe and supportive environment where players are encouraged to explore the game, try new things, and have fun.
This program is ideal for families looking to keep their children active in the spring and prepare them for future summer programs—no prior soccer experience required.

Program Highlights:
- Focus on physical literacy, coordination, and confidence
- Introduction to soccer through games and creative activities
