Soccer League Information
Our soccer leagues are set in a self-reffing format with all players expected to play within the "spirit of the game." All teams play 7 league games plus qualify for playoffs (seeding based on league results). All players must be rostered on the team to be eligible. If a team is short and uses a player from another team, the team will forfeit the game but still play the game. The team can play short if they so choose. Each team plays 2 x 25 minute halves once per week plus double headers as needed followed by a playoff round. In the playoff round there will be multiple games in one night.
Returning teams $350, new teams $375.
To register a team or to sign up as an individual (will be assigned a team), please contact MJ Ball at mjball@fields4kids.org or call/text 991-8940
