What happens after I register?

Once registration closes, teams go thru the building process.  Coaches are then identified, and then they are given a roster of players including contact information for each player.  The coaches will then contact players to provide: practice days, times, and team meeting information.  This usually occurs prior to the Recreational Coaches meeting or at least 1week prior to the first weekend of games.  

What equipment do I need?

All players will need shin guards, water, a correct size soccer ball, and soccer shoes for each practice and game.  For players playing U4-U8 a size 3 ball is used.  Players in the U9-12 age groups a size 4 ball is used.  Players playing U13 and older a size 5 ball is used.
