Oakland Dental Care Kicks Off the Season with Smiles and Soccer!

At Oakland Dental Care, we believe that strong smiles and strong teamwork go hand in hand, and this fall, we’re proud to bring both to the field as the official sponsor of the Oakland 1st and 2nd-Grade Girls Soccer Team! 

Each Saturday morning at Wells Field, you’ll find our bright-eyed players lacing up their cleats, full of energy and excitement. Guided by Coaches Beatty and Warner, and powered by the expert training of First Shot Soccer, this enthusiastic group of young athletes is brushing up on their skills, learning the importance of teamwork, and having a blast every step of the way.

Building Confidence One Goal at a Time

This season, the focus isn’t just on scoring goals - it’s on growing confidence. The girls are learning to pass with purpose, celebrate effort, and support one another through every practice and game. With each high-five and cheer, they’re developing the same positive mindset we encourage in every dental visit: small steps build lifelong habits, and teamwork makes every goal achievable.

A Community United by Spirit

As featured in the Oakland Recreation Soccer September Newsletter, this year’s recreational soccer program is thriving, with over 400 young athletes participating. The fields are alive with learning, laughter, and lasting friendships. Sponsors like Oakland Dental Care help make that possible, providing uniforms, resources and encouragement so every child can play confidently and feel part of something special

We’re honored to stand alongside other local sponsors including Cenzino’s Restaurant, Keller Williams Prosperity Realty, Neon Energy Sports, and Pathway Electric in supporting Oakland’s youth programs. Together, we’re helping ensure that every child has access to a safe, inclusive, and inspiring environment to grow.
