Youth Soccer inEncino

Encino is one of the San Fernando Valley's most established residential communities, home to families who prioritize education, safety, and enrichment for their children. Nordic Soccer serves Encino through its on-campus programs at Hesby Oaks Leadership Charter, a K-8 span school located on Hesby Street near the intersection of the 405 and 101 freeways, and, starting Fall 2026, at the Academy for Enriched Sciences, the K-5 science magnet on Miranda Street, with Monday sessions from 2:20 to 3:20 PM for TK through 5th grade.

Hesby Oaks is unique among Nordic Soccer's partner schools because it serves students through 8th grade, giving the program a wider age range than most elementary-only campuses. After-school soccer at Hesby Oaks covers TK through 5th grade in the standard program, with additional opportunities for middle school students through Nordic Soccer's Development and Club pathways. The campus sits in a quiet residential area with good field space, making it an ideal environment for focused training.

Encino families appreciate the structure and professionalism that Nordic Soccer brings. Every session follows a planned curriculum that balances skill development with game play. Coaches use small-sided formats to maximize touches on the ball, and the player-to-coach ratio never exceeds 15:1 with assistant support. Communication flows through TeamSnap, so parents always know the schedule, any changes, and how their child is progressing.

Beyond Hesby Oaks, Encino residents are well-positioned to access Nordic Soccer's full range of programs. The Development Program at Valley Village Park is accessible via Ventura Boulevard, Club team training at Van Nuys Middle School is a short drive north, and seasonal camps run at convenient Valley locations during school breaks. The Viking Championship League on Sundays offers a recreational competitive experience for players who want game day excitement without the year-round club commitment.

Encino's proximity to Sherman Oaks and Tarzana means families in the 91436 and 91316 zip codes have multiple Nordic Soccer access points within a 10-minute drive.
