22 Jul Glendale Homes for Sale- CCV STARS, Local Sports Teams
If you happen to live in the northwest part of town in the Glendale Homes for Sale area, or even if you don’t, there is a great sports league called the CCV Stars. You may have heard of the CCV church and yes the sports teams are affiliated but you do not have to be a member of the church to have fun and participate on the teams.
The CCV Stars have teams for soccer, football, and basketball both recreational and competitive. STARs or Striving To Achieve Real Significance on the field and in your home, has teams for children ages 4-17.
The United Soccer Program is for the first time player and is more of a developmental program. The kids playing on this league are encouraged to have fun and enjoy the social aspects of being on a team for the first time. The age group for the United teams are 4-6 and generally they practice once a week with games held locally on Saturdays in the Glendale Homes for Sale community.
The Excel Soccer Program is for ages 6-17 with more of a competitive experience for the teams. The various teams compete in the AYSA State and Open Leagues. Practices are held a few times a week and in most cases have professional trainers and coaches. Home games are held at the CCV fields while away games are held valley wide. Players are encouraged to develop their skills but still have a focus on positive encouragement.
During the off season CCV Stars holds various soccer camps for ages 3 thru 2nd grade. These camps are held in the evenings and include various skill sets, games and physio exercises. A great idea to work off some energy during the summer months!
