League Objectives: For many children soccer is their first experience of team play. Our house program is focused on basics of playing sports for fun and being a good sport. To that end no score is officially kept and all children receive medals at the end of the season. Team Composition: Our house recreation league is co-ed from the beginning to end. Teams are determined using the following criteria. Boys and girls are divided so that each team consists of equal gender. Ages are factored in so that no team receives a greater number of older players. Efforts are made to have younger and older players dispersed appropriately; however, parental preferences, requests are met when possible, and only if "fair" teams result along with such requests. Our club does not advocate "stacked" teams, as this is our learning league. Therefore, coach requests may not be honored to eliminate unbalanced teams. 

Practices: As in any other sport or league, practices are determined by the VOLUNTEER coach. We encourage coaches to provide 3-4 practices before the onset of the season, yet weather and holidays may infringe on this expectation. Since games are played on Saturday mornings the coaches set their practices during the season as they see fit. 

Practice & Games: All house games and practices are played at the Washago Pond area at Willow Metropark.  (8) games are played in both fall and spring seasons.  Registration is for current season only.
