How The Year Is Split

One Program, Two Competitive Blocks

Fall and spring are registered separately so families are never locked into a full year up front. Most players do both, and the curriculum is written on the assumption that they will.

Block A · Sep – Nov

Fall Season

The bigger of the two blocks and where squads are set for the year. Ten league fixtures, opening weekend on 13 September, and the Solar Cup hosted at our own pitches in the first week.

Block B · Mar – May

Spring Season

Squads carry over from fall with room for new players who came through the winter indoor block. Ten more fixtures, warmer ground, and a heavier tactical emphasis now that the group knows each other.

Age Groups & Formats

Every Division, Every Format

Formats step up deliberately. A player moving from 7v7 to 9v9 has already spent a season learning the shapes that make 9v9 make sense.

Boys and girls divisions run at every age group. Where numbers are short in a single age year we combine two years rather than cancel a squad, and players always train with their own age band.

What A Match Day Looks Like

Arrive Early. Warm Up Properly. Leave It On The Pitch.

Match days have a routine and we hold to it. Players who treat the warm-up as optional do not start, regardless of ability, and every family knows that before the first whistle of the season.

  • 60 minutes before kick-off. Boots on, kit correct, at the designated meeting point.
  • Structured warm-up. Twenty-five minutes, coach-led, the same sequence every week.
  • Guaranteed minutes. Every rostered player gets at least half the match in league fixtures.
  • No post-match debrief in the car. We review on Monday, with video. Let them be kids on Saturday.

Fall opens warm and closes cold. Pack for the second half of the block from day one and you will not get caught out.

Home & Away KitBoth shirts travel to every fixture. Colour clashes get called on the morning of the match.
Rain LayerFixtures play through rain. A packable waterproof lives in the bag from October onward.
Water & A SnackA litre minimum plus something to eat after the whistle. Fixtures can run back to back.
Own BallSize-correct for the age group, inflated, name written on it. Used in every warm-up.

Outdoor Questions

Before You Register

Roughly half the fixtures are at United Fields and half are away. Away venues are within a forty-minute drive for the younger divisions, and up to about an hour from U15 upward where the league pool is wider. We publish the full travel map before registration closes.

In league fixtures, yes. Every rostered player gets a minimum of half the match. Cup and playoff fixtures are the exception and coaches will tell squads that in advance rather than surprise anyone on the day.

Matches play through rain. Cancellation happens only for lightning or an unplayable surface, and the call comes from the league by 7:00am on match day. Rescheduled fixtures are added to the end of the block, which is why we build two spare weekends into every calendar.

Occasionally, and only when the coaching staff agree it serves the player rather than the team. Playing up is reviewed at the midpoint of every block, and a player who is not getting real minutes at the higher level goes back down without it being treated as a demotion.

From U16 upward. That covers highlight footage from our match cameras, a recruiting profile, guidance on contacting programs, and staff who will pick up the phone to a college coach. It is included in the season fee, not sold as an extra.
