Come be part of the largest and premier Island Recreation program offered! Participants will be placed on teams in their age division and with a coach. Coaches decide on their practice day and times during the week and communicate that with their team. There is a 7 week regular season and followed by a 1 week playoff tournament that every team 1st grade and up participates in. Island Rec Athletics staff governs the program and volunteer coaches assist with the teams they coach
Program is led by Volunteer coaches who enjoy the aspects of coaching and the sport of soccer. They can request 1 player outside of their own child for their team. Requests outside of that may be made, but are not guaranteed in the interest of creating balanced teams and fair competition.
