Equipment: Players are all required to wear shin guards and soccer cleats (shoes) in order to participate in games and practices. Parents provide required equipment items.
Game Schedule: Teams will play 7-10 games during season, depending on weather and amount of teams assembled. Schedule will be sent out via coaches and emailed to families before the start of the season, after teams have been determined. Any make up days due to weather will be pushed one week. Any changes in the schedule will be communicated to the coaches, then to parents via email and text.
Teams and Draft process: This is a non-competitive recreation-play team sport program; therefore, teams are drafted to build balance between teams; based on inconsequential facts of a registered child such as age, gender, and jersey size. As recommended by US Soccer Foundation, teams will be made of up to 6 players per team for 4 v 4 games, with no goal keepers. The goal for this program is to encourage kids to have fun learning a new sport, make new friends, and to love playing outside.
Coaches and staff will guide and ref games based on the US Soccer recommendations for these divisions. Individual player and team score sheets will be recorded, but will not hold any effect towards a team's ability to participate throughout the season. A participation trophy is given to all registered players.
All teams are picked by coaches at the time of the draft. The program does not guarantee any specific placement or accommodations, other than for siblings. All players that register after the draft are placed into a team based on the guidance of our draft policy.
