Spring 2026 - In-House
For our first season back we are offering in-house soccer for U8, U10, and U12 age groups.
We are also offering a slight expansion for players aged 6 and 13. 6 year-olds who wish to "play up" with 7 & 8 year-olds can join our program this spring. We do recommend that you only seek to "play up" your child if they have experience playing and can handle the rigors of playing with older, stronger, and more experienced players. If you have a first-time player 6 and under, we do recommend looking at the program offered by Slippery Rock Parks & Rec. For now, that is the best offering for the youngest players in our area.
Likewise, for 13 year-olds who want to "just play", you can also join us as well. If you have an older child who is seeking more highly-competitive programs we would recommend looking at other options for now. As our program grows, we hope field both of the younger development program as well as those older highly-competitive travel teams you are seeking.
Spring 2026 Information:
- Our season begins Saturday April 11th and runs for 8 weeks (till mid-June).
- Practices will begin late-March
- The season will have 8 games.
- Games are on Saturdays
- Practices will be 1-2 per week depending on field conditions and coach availability.
- We are playing outside on the park fields in Harrisville. Take the turn next to Cozad Garage Doors and you will find our fields behind the baseball fields. Because we are outside, weather is a factor. Soccer does play in most all weather conditions, but player safety and field integrity will need to be taken into account. Believe me when I say....WE WANT TO PLAY!
- This program is meant to be flexible. If your child participates in other sports, programs, or activities we do not want you to feel like this can't be fit in: it absolutely can! Even our coaches participate in other local sports leagues and flexibility is key. Even if you can't make every practice or game, we want you to join us!
- Price is $70 and includes a jersey/shirt
Equipment you will need:
- Black Shorts
- Shin Guards
- Cleats (soccer cleats are different than baseball and football; you can tell the difference by the cleat at the end of the toe)
- Black soccer socks
- Orange soccer socks (optional) - since our color scheme is orange, orange socks will be allowed.
- You do not need to bring a soccer ball to training sessions, but you should have one at home. U8 and U10 use a #3 size ball, and U12 uses a size #4. If you are going out to purchase a ball for use, we do recommend a size #4 as you will get more use out of it.

Future Programs
Because Spring 2026 is a transition for SRYSA, we are limited on what we can offer. With your help (we need coaches, referees, board members, and other general volunteers) we will grow this program. Our hope it to offer U6 In-House for the youngest players as well as highly competitive Travel Soccer for older players. The Travel Soccer program will be the culmination of our efforts to put forth players who can compete at a high level; preparing them for High School and beyond.
