TABORKIDS FC “Forging champions for life”
TABORKIDS FC was founded in December 2020 in Revere, MA, and has been affiliated with the Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association since May 2021. Due to COVID-19, a family of six members reflected on the necessity of exercise and creating something to help children and families keep strong. The Taborda family’s dad had substations experience on the soccer field as a player, coach, and leading a group of children in his country, Colombia. He wanted to establish a soccer academy in the U.S.A to practice his sports knowledge many years ago. His wife and four children shared his passion for soccer which helped him achieve his dream after the pandemic. TABORKIDS started with four children who belong to Taborda’s family, and today is fomenting recreation for around 60 children and youth from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds who have limitations in assessing regular soccer academies. Furthermore, TABORKIDS’s members have interested in learning more about soccer and teaching principles taking advantage of the Mass Youth Soccer Association certifications to get the required licenses. TABORKID’S staff wants every member of the academy to enjoy soccer, have durable, healthy habits, and adopt values that impact their lives positively. The club developed an organized action plan to focus on growing each child’s physical capabilities at different ages. TABORKIDS also focuses on teaching soccer techniques and developing physical skills by practicing resistance, coordination, balance, flexibility, strengthening of muscles, and leading the player to know how their body works and what to do to improve their potential and unique abilities. The Club operates under the motto ¨forging champions for life¨.
