Description

The programs players seeking to continue their competitive soccer journey. Please note that the creation of competitive teams is contingent upon player availability. The program continues to focus on developmental aspects of soccer. There are some small-sided games and possible league, or friendly opportunities based on team availability and player numbers.

Financial obligations including additional uniform requirements and additional coaching fees may apply.

There are currently no multi player discounts for fall soccer.

Coed Play

In the event Coed teams are formed, the teams must play in the boys divisions. It is our intent to avoid formation of Coed teams, however, this can only be avoided by registration of individual gender specific players.  If we are unable to register enough gender specific athletes, the club either has to form coed teams or accept that certain gender and age specific groups may not have teams to play on. 

Time Frame

Fall season generally begins August thru October.

Required Equipment

  • One purple uniform
  • One grey uniform
  • One pair of black shorts
  • Two pairs of socks

Venue

Both home and away games across Montana, and traditionally attends tournaments located in Montana and Northern Wyoming, Rapid City South Dakota.
