Practice and Games happen the same night at the game site. ·

League plays on Sat., Sun., or Mon. evenings for 6 games starting on August 28th/29th/30th.

Less players = more ball touches.
(develops skills)

Each player has more opportunity to score (builds confidence).

Players will naturally get more involved (builds fitness).

Goals and fields are smaller, with lots of goals being scored.

Maximum of 8 players per team, playing 4 vs. 4. ·
Each team provides a volunteer coach (usually a parent) to whom the YMCA will give helpful soccer practice diagrams and instructions. ·
Easy way for beginning coaches to learn the game of soccer.

Players may register for both Micro soccer and Recreational Soccer. Teams are based on school, grade and previous team. We try to honor friend requests. ·
