League Structure (field size is approximate):

Kindergarten and 1st grade

• Separate boys and girls league playing 4 v 4, no goalie, no offside, 20 x 25 yd field. Teams will use a split field method—each team splits into two teams and plays on fields side by side against an opposing split team.

2nd - 3rd grade

• Separate boys and girls league playing 7 v 7, no offside, 30 x 55 yd field. 

4th - 6th grade

• Separate boys and girls league playing 7 v 7, offside in effect, 42 x 65 yd field. 

Everyone Plays

• Our goal is for kids to play soccer, so every player on every team plays in every game.  It’s no fun to spend the game on the bench and that’s no way to learn soccer!

Open Registration

• Our program is open to all children starting kindergarten through 6th grade who want to register and play soccer.  There are no try-outs and nobody gets cut.

Positive Coaching - Encouragement of player effort provides for greater enjoyment for the players and leads to better-skilled and better-motivated players.  A coach can be one of the most influential people in a child’s life, so we encourage them to create a positive experience for every player.

Good Sportsmanship

• We strive to create a positive environment based on mutual respect rather than a win at all cost attitude.  Our program is designed to instill good sportsmanship among others.

Player Development

• We believe that all players should be able to develop their soccer skills and knowledge to the best of their abilities, both individually and as members of a team, in order to maximize their enjoyment of the game.
