The Old Bridge Girls Soccer League has a program for all special needs children called “Just4Kixs.” It is a program for any child from ages 3-17 with special needs.

Children from any town are accepted; you do not need to be a resident of Old Bridge to play. This program runs during the spring and fall season every year. It is a 10-week program and operates on Saturday mornings.

Just4Kixs needs more teenage buddies to help out. If you are between the ages of 12-19 and would like to participate in this program and make a difference in a special child’s life, please fill out the buddy application online at www.oldbridgegirlssoccer.com and send it in.
