  • Coach-Led Instruction: Sessions are guided by experienced coaches who rotate through stations or lead consistent small groups, ensuring every player gets attention and encouragement.

  • Two club jerseys for each player to wear during sessions and games

Pathway Program: Rec+

Ready for more than just the standard rec season?

Rec+ is an optional add-on for players who want extra challenge and growth while staying in the recreational program. Rec+ bridges the gap between Rec and Competitive, giving motivated players a taste of advanced training and competitive play without the full-time commitment.

  • One weekly training session with our age-group competitive team, in addition to all regular Rec activities.
  • Access to more advanced coaching and faster-paced sessions.
  • Stay in the Rec program, but get a glimpse of competitive soccer.
  • Eligible to be invited to official competitive matches (no extra paperwork needed).
  • Perfect for families wanting to support motivated players while keeping soccer fun and flexible.

Rec+ is available as an option during registration. It’s the perfect bridge for players who want more challenge, more training time, or just a look at what competitive soccer is all about—while still enjoying all the benefits of our Rec model.
