What Division Will My Child Play In? – Fall 2026/Spring 2027

WE PLAY 1 YEAR DIVISIONS (Season year is Fall 26 & Spring 27)

US Club Soccer does not allow a child to play below his/her age group regardless of size or experience for insurance purposes.

2026/2027 Updated Decision on Age Group Formation Following extensive review and discussion, US Youth Soccer, AYSO, and US Club Soccer have collectively decided to move to an age group player formation cycle that runs from August 1 to July 31, starting with the 2026-27 season/registration year. This change was made based on additional critical feedback, data, and expert input to align players better. Our associations feel that this player formation for this age group will be the most inclusive and will help increase participation.

Gametime request.

With nearly 200+ teams in our program, we do not honor game time requests

Before registering your team, please make sure that both you and your players are available to play

In the Spring, 9:00 am - 5:30 pm (Saturdays)
