Come have fun this summer playing soccer and improving your skills for the upcoming fall season. This summer we will play local teams on Tuesday and Thursday evenings with occasional week mornings for workouts to gain strength and conditioning.

PLEASE NOTE: Depending on vacations, work schedules and the number of participants that register, there might be two separate teams formed to minimize the number of players on the bench. 

WHAT THIS MEANS: Some weeks we might have availability of your child to play both nights if players numbers are low in availability. BUT if we have 40 players all interested in playing that week, I will be splitting the boys so we have more playing time and less bench time.  Everyone is guaranteed to play at least one game a week with the possibility of two. They will also be on a rotation so all players will get equal opportunities.

We will begin on June 17th and end August 7th.

Summer is a time for family vacations also so we understand you might need to miss some time. Please just give coach Milliken a heads up of your plans.
