Bob the Bobcat is what we call each child's soccer ball! Our curriculum uses imaginative play where children "tame" their bobcat and take Bob on adventures—to the zoo, the movies, and even an enchanted castle.

This approach makes learning soccer skills feel like play, not practice. Children naturally want to keep the ball close and develop ball control without even realizing they're learning!

League registration includes a team jersey and medal!

We accept credit/debit cards through our secure Stripe payment system. You can pay through the app or online. Most customers are set up on auto-billing, which charges on the first of each month for classes.

For monthly classes, we require 30 days notice to cancel. Submit cancellation requests to:

• Email: billing@happysoccerfeet.com
• Or: paulette@happyfeetkc.com

For planned absences, email us in advance and we'll adjust billing or schedule a makeup class.

Weekly Classes:

• 30-minute skill-building session
• At your child's preschool or our facility
• Month-to-month, no commitment
• Focus on curriculum and individual development

Weekend Leagues:

• 30-min class + game time each week
• 8-week seasonal commitment
• Team jersey and medal included
• Play with friends or join a team

Many families do BOTH for maximum development!

• Little Toes (age 2): Yes! Parents participate alongside their child.
• Big Toes and older: Parents watch from the sideline while professional coaches lead the session.

Absolutely! You have two options:

1. Form your own team: Get 5+ friends together for a team registration discount.
2. Request teammates: Note your preferences on the registration form and we'll try to place kids together.

We also accommodate school groups, play groups, and classroom friends when possible.

For outdoor sessions:

• You'll receive an email and app notification if class is cancelled
• Many locations have indoor backup spaces
• Makeup classes are scheduled within 60 days

Indoor facility classes are not affected by weather!

2-year-olds do NOT need shin guards.

Children receive a stamp on the back of their hand after class! Two stamps means they did great. You can also check the app for attendance records and coach updates.
