FOR EVERY CHILD.
What is PLAY+ REC?
THE JOY OF PLAY.
PLUS REAL GROWTH.
PLAY+ REC is Doral West Soccer Academy’s recreational program for young players who want to learn, stay active and enjoy the game in a positive team environment.
The “plus” is everything children gain beyond soccer: confidence, coordination, creativity, communication, friendships and a sense of belonging. Training is age-appropriate, energetic and guided by coaches who understand how children learn.
Players can begin without previous club experience. As they grow, families who want a more competitive challenge can explore the Doral West development pathway.
Learn Through Play
Small-sided games and engaging activities keep players involved, moving and making decisions.
Family Environment
Supportive coaches and families create a community where every child belongs.
A Pathway Forward
Players can grow from recreational soccer toward academy and competitive opportunities when ready.
