Jones Bridge Soccer
Jones Bridge Soccer (JBS) is the new name for Peachtree Booster Club’s soccer program. The soccer league is located at Jones Bridge Park on East Jones Bridge Road, in Peachtree Corners near the Forum shopping center. It was affiliated in 2008 with Georgia State Soccer Association (GSSA). JBS teams may participate in GSSA tournaments: the fall cup and spring State Championship, and other tournaments. JBS’s U14 Girls Breakers won the state’s fall championship, the Kohl’s Cup, in November.
Registration for spring soccer starts in January. Look for registration flyers in your children’s school bags. Players aged 2-4 are may register for the Preschool “Superstars” Program, and players aged 5-12 may register for the Recreational Program.
Since it’s affiliation with GSSA, JBS uses the Kicking Is Not Soccer (KINS) program created by GSSA. These are small-sided games where players get maximum touches on the ball, thus enhancing their soccer skills. Parents love seeing their children get a lot of time with the ball, and kids love the small fields because they get to score more and feel successful.
JBS is a rec league only. For the modern student who has multiple activities JBS’s schedule of one practice and one game per week is a perfect complement for the busy student. JBS would also like to recruit enough girls for the spring season to have a separate girls and boys leagues.
At JBS, skills, fun, and sportsmanship are emphasized. It is fun competition without politics and pressure. Many parents agree that for the money, convenience, and pressure-free environment of playing in Peachtree Corners, that JBS is a great value, and who couldn’t use that?
