8. My child will turn 3 years old in the middle of the session, which age group class do you recommend I register my child for?
If you are new to the program we recommend taking the class that fits your child's age at the time you join. The instructor can assess the ability of the child once the session begins, and can recommend a higher level class (age group) and you maybe allowed to move up or down depending on the situation. This applies for all ages and all programs.

Subject to facility availability, we would be happy to create a new class time for you as long as you know at least four children who can commit and pay, so please contact our office. Find four friends and all participants will recieve a 10% discount.

10. What do I need to bring to class?
We provide all equipment needed for the class. Your child should wear loose-fitting clothing and comfortable shoes, such as sneakers or tennis shoes. We also recommend bringing something to drink, as not all facilities provide water fountains. For the Bears and SoccerTouch program, your child should wear shinguards.

13. Can I bring siblings to an Alamo TotSports class?
Younger siblings are welcome to observe the class but for safety reasons we cannot allow these younger children to walk and crawl around the field and play with equipment in the same area as the class. Older siblings are welcome to watch but due to the focus and attention required in these classes we cannot allow them to participate.

14. How do I schedule a make-up class?
Each participant is allowed two makeup classes per session. These makeup classes must be setup with the main office PRIOR to the day of the class. Specifically, our Saturday morning classes are usually full and a waiting list is setup for makeups during this time. Regardless of the time, all makeups must be scheduled with the office.
