League Rules
In an effort to provide a SAFE and FUN soccer experience we ask that each player take the time to read, understand, and fully comply with the following policies for play in our leagues. A team captain or leader must sign a document confirming they have read and understand this information prior to the start of the first game.
Our leagues are played on a (7 v 7) artificial outdoor turf and are intended to offer a medium to high (have played soccer before) level of play in the form of friendly competition. Player skill and athletic abilities may vary.
