The purpose of our recreational soccer programs is for players to learn the game and have fun doing it. The curriculum is developmental by design and focuses on individual skills development and team tactics. The soccer year runs from August 1st through July 31st and is comprised of two outdoor seasons: Fall and Spring, and an indoor Winter season. Players may choose to play in any season, and are not required to participate in all 3.
Each season runs for eight weeks. The Fall Season typically begins the week after Labor Day and runs through the month of October. The Spring Season typically begins the first week in April and runs through the month of May. No games are scheduled for Labor Day or Memorial Day weekends.
