The program offers a gentle introduction to soccer and organized team sports with one weekly session offered on a weekend day TBD.

We provide a variety of soccer programs to meet different needs and experience levels for all ages of children. In keeping with the AYSO philosophy, everyone participates, and everyone plays; whether in a early training program or a competitive team, all players will find opportunities to play and be involved on the field. Volunteer driven, we encourage and provide training for everyone to have a role to support children's soccer as coaches, referees, or other areas of support.

Please note the following fees per division:
U5 and U6 - $100 per player
U8 - $175 per player
U10 through U19 - $200 per player
In addition to your local registration, there will be a $25 annual National membership fee plus $2.75 service fee; both are non-refundable
