RECREATION
Recreation Program Overview
The Recreation Program offers an opportunity for youth players (ages 4U to 19U) to play soccer at a less challenging and competitive level, while still placing an emphasis on learning and having fun.
Rec Soccer is entirely coached by parent and community volunteers. We rely on our 200+ coaches to help keep our team sizes manageable and to maximize each child's time touching the ball and playing the game. Our 4U through 19U players will be registered and insured through Georgia Soccer, our Governing body. Due to insurance and liability reasons players are not allowed to play "down" in age. Players must play within their birth year. If a player wants to play "up" an age group, they must first seek out approval from the program director.
Registration for the
Fall 2025 Recreation program will open Mid-Summer.
Quick Facts
Two Seasons Offered:
(1) Fall (Aug - Nov; Registration opens Mid-Summer)

Payment, Communication and Scheduling system.
