White Lake kicks off free youth soccer program Saturday
Town of Bethel’s no-cost Saturday soccer clinics for ages 6–11 run through August 22 at Dr. Duggan School field with online and in-person registration open now.
White Lake, NY, launches a free youth soccer program for ages 6–8 and 9–11 this Saturday at Dr. to noon through August 22. gov or in person at the town office.
The clinics target two age groups—6–8 and 9–11—providing structured play each weekend during peak summer months. Sessions are held at the Dr. Duggan School field, a central community venue.
No prior experience is required, and all equipment is provided at no cost. The program’s design reflects a deliberate shift toward inclusivity, with smaller group sizes to ensure every child gets meaningful touches on the ball and avoids the bench-warming pitfalls of larger, more competitive setups. The Town of Bethel coordinates logistics, registration, and volunteer recruitment, drawing on local high-school athletes as coaches.
