Q: I would like my child on a specific team. How do you assign new players?

A: Returning players may return to their previous season's team until May 31st. At that time any remaining roster spots are filled first by those players transferring from another team. Secondly, by new players in 'first come first serve order'. We always do our best to honor team and buddy requests though we do not guarantee them.

SOCCER SEASON:

A: For U8 and above you should hear from your coach the first week of August. If you haven't heard from anyone by this time please email us using our contact form. Provide your son/daughter's name, birthday and your names and someone will get back with you asap. For U/6 and U/7 your child's coach will call the end of August or the first days of September.

For U/6 and U/7 you will not have practices during August and your season will also start the first weekend after Labor Day. This age has a 30 min practice followed by a 30 min game on Saturdays at Heatherwood Middle School.

Q: When and where will my son/daughter's practices be?

A: We will not know this until late in July when we have requests from the coach and field availability from the school district.
