Fall registration is closed The next registration event will be Spring 2022
Our Recreational team program is geared towards children who want to enjoy and particpate in a fun sports activity. Our teams do not travel to play. They play in house teams who play other MLU teams.
Registrants in grades 3-6 are grouped for coed team play. Teams will practice one evening a week and play games on Saturday mornings with other MLU recreation teams.
Games will be played in a 4v4, 5v5, 6v6 or 7v7 format depending on player attendance. Games will be officiated by referees.
If you are interested in coaching a team please contact us, at [email protected] The teams are scheduled for an 8 game season depending on team, weather, and field conditions permitting. Uniforms are provided. Parents are responsible for cleats, shin-guards, and a size 4 soccer ball. Recreation teams do not travel to other clubs to participate in weekly games. Current carded travel soccer players may not register and play recreational soccer. Spring soccer participation is usually lower than fall soccer due to other spring sports. We may choose modified team formations and types of gameplay. We aim to make it fun!
We are interested in volunteer coaches for our teams! If you are interested please contact us at [email protected] Our coaches are background checked, take online educational safety courses as required by our National and State affiliations.
