Copa Grande Rattlers Soccer Club
The Copa Grande Rattlers are a non-profit and educational organization whose mission is to foster the physical, mental and emotional growth and development of AZ's youth through the sport of soccer at all age levels and competitiion. We train the players in a rigid U S Soccer training program with licensed coaches. All players that are committed to club soccer will have the opportunity to participate at a minimal cost. We strive to build good character players that will become future community leaders.
Because we are a non-profit organization, we do the best we can to minimize the cost for our players. We strive to minimize the dues, so anyone that has the love of the game can have the opportunity to play, regardless of their financial situation. In order for us to be able to afford uniforms, equipment, field time, and be able to participate in tournaments at a high caliber we need help from anyone willing to help make these kids dreams a reality.
Children who take part in organized sports receive many social, mental and psychological benefits over and above those that come from general physical activity. Starting a child in an organized sport gives them a healthy habit of physical activity to see them right through to adulthood and help them ward off many age- and weight-related ailments. Even before adulthood, teens who take part in sports are less likely to smoke, do drugs or abuse alcohol. Learning the rules and techniques of a new sport and training for a particular purpose can give a child self-discipline that they can employ both on and off the field. Sports often help children learn that working hard helps them to achieve a goal. When many people think of organized sports, team sports often spring to mind. Sports such as soccer can teach children to trust and rely on others to achieve common goals, value everyone's individual strengths and put collective needs before individual wants. Improved mental health Taking part in a sport can greatly improve a child's sense of self-worth. Whether it is the satisfaction of mastering a dribble or beating a personal best, sports-related exercise enables children to gain confidence in their skills. In an era of excessive focus on appearance, sports also provide an outlet for children, especially girls, to focus not on what their bodies look like but on what they can do. This has the knock-on benefit of improved body image. Taking part in anything competitive requires an ability to handle disappointments and accept personal responsibility for any mistakes. It can take a while for children - and some adults - to learn not to blame others when things go wrong. However, organized sports can teach important lessons about the value of taking part rather than winning and about using setbacks as learning opportunities.
Help us help these children be a part of something that can make a true difference in the people they can become!
