Players who are under the age of six years old (but older than four years old) on August 1st of the Fall Soccer Season will play in the U6 Age Group (Note: These players will be in the U6 Age Group for both the Fall then Spring Seasons).
U6 Age Group is a Co-Ed age group in which players get their first taste of, "team sports". U6 Teams practice once a week. Practice times are determined by the coach, but will be on a weekday evening, typically between 5:30 - 7:30pm. On Saturday mornings, the teams will take part in a 30 minute, half-field, practice followed by a 30 minute 3 vs. 3 game. The game is conducted on a small-sided field without referees and the coaches are on the field with the players during the game.
Your child must wear the following equipment:
- AYSO uniform( to games only - practices may be attended in any athletic clothing)
- Shin guards (available anywhere sporting goods are sold)
- Socks large enough to cover the shin guards (soccer socks are preferable as they are purposely oversized)
- Size 3 soccer ball (a limited number of community balls are usually available but it is recommended you bring your own ball to be safe)
The following are not required but recommended:
- Soccer shoes or cleats
- Water or other drink (community water is usually not provided and is not available at the fields)
