Youngsters in this age bracket start focusing on mastering some of the basics of the sport. They crave feedback from coaches and parents on how they’re performing certain skills and how they’re progressing with new ones. The desire to compete carries much more prominence for some youngsters in this age range than others.

Children in U-8 are under 8, (they are 6 & 7 years old by Dec 31), generally first and second graders, but not necessarily.
