Registration

WYSC's recreational soccer league is for players ages 3-18. Players 3-6 will participate in our Mini Kickers program. Players U8 through U19 will be assigned to teams based on year of birth.

Last season WYSC has made big changes to our U6 and U8 soccer programs.

WYSC U6 Mini Kicks program will have weekly practices coached by WYSC's Director of Coaching Sergio Guzman along with the volunteer coach and assistant coaches for the team. 

U6 players will still be able to select if they would like to play on Saturday or Sunday. Games will be run 4v4 and played with 10 minute quarters. Volunteer coaches will be able to be on the field to help coach the kids. No referee's will be assigned to this age group.

WYSC's U8 in-house soccer league will be run using an academy style technique. Teams will have once a week practice for 1.5 hours each week. The first 40 minutes the teams will work as a group on technical skills coached by WYSC's Director of Coaching Sergio Guzman along with the teams volunteer coach and assistant coaches. The second half of the practice the teams will separate into individual teams and work on the teams aspect of soccer. All U8 sessions will be held on Wednesday or Thursday's. 

Players in the U8 division can select Saturday or Sunday game days. No scores or standings will be held in this division. All U8 teams will participate in an End of season Festival where all teams will have 3 games over the weekend. 

 WYSC will continue to play in the Suburban Friendship League (SFL) after our first successful season. SFL is a soccer league centered in Northern Virginia, to provide a range and variety of competition for the club’s U12 to U19 recreational teams.  SFL is organized around gender-specific age groups including U11, U12, U13, U14, U16, and U19.  SFL operates several divisions per age group to promote competitive play. Teams will play half the games at Athey sports complex and the other half at the opposing team's fields.

WYSC will be putting the following teams for the Spring season;

 Players who played in SFL for the fall will be placed on the same team for spring unless other request are made during registration.
