VOLUNTEER WITH SAVANNAH UNITED
Our Recreational Soccer Programs are run on the power of our volunteers!
Young athletes are forever changed and influenced by the coaches they experience during their early years of sports. Regardless of your knowledge or experience, volunteer coaches are temporary teachers of the game of soccer, helping our players develop a lifelong love of the game. At Savannah United our recreational program emphasizes teamwork, fair play, self-confidence, fun and ALL kids play. If they leave the fields with a smile on their face, we have met our goals! Savannah United has a wonderful history of volunteer coaches, so whether you have any prior experience with soccer, we encourage YOU to become a volunteer coach with Savannah United, We have opportunities in five (5) divisions, and we strongly believe coaching soccer will enrich your life in many ways.

Savannah United Recreational Soccer program is designed to create a fun filled, organized playing environment for players of all skill levels with ALL volunteer coaches. It is a place for players to be able to play with friends while experiencing the joys of competing in this beautiful game. No tryouts are required! ALL volunteer coaches are provided equipment and receive FREE registration for the player(s) whom they are coaching.
Our recreational program has two (2) seasons, Fall and Spring. The Fall season takes place September through November. The Fall registration opens in April/May and remains open through two weeks before games begin. The Spring season takes place March through May. The Spring registration opens in November/December through two weeks before games begin. Each season is typically 8-10 weeks.
Our volunteer coaches have the option to select/invite specific players to their team or can have free agent players placed on their team.
