Recreational League (U9+)

The Stanwood Camano Youth Soccer Club follows the guidelines for 'Small Sided' soccer as set forth by the Washington State Youth Soccer Association.  Depending on the age division, the team's maximum roster size ranges from 9 (U9) to 18 (U12+).  The reduced roster size for U9 - U11 teams allows for a greater opportunity to 'be involved', both from the playing time and the individual coach attention.

From the coaches perspective, the smaller teams are easier to manage and provide a better opportunity to focus on skill development.

This is an opportunity to get to know the fundamentals of the game and have fun! 

Practices
Rec Coaches are encouraged to conduct practices twice a week for the duration of at least 1 hour.  The practice location for a Rec team is determined by the coach.  As our coaches are volunteers, we given them the opportunity to set the time and location to something that is beneficial for all.

Uniforms & Equipment
As part of the registration fee, each player will receive a jersey, shorts and socks.  Shinguards are required and cleats are optional, but recommended.  Coaches will have access to balls and cones, however it is recommended that each player have their own size appropriate ball.

Games
Rec games are played within the Association clubs which go as far north as the San Juan Islands to the southern side which is Stanwood.  Alternate times and locations can be agreed upon between the coaches on a game by game basis and as space permits.

Pictures
Team and individual photos will be taken by 'Remember When Photography' as scheduled by the coach on September 13th, 14th or 15th.  Please check with your coach for additional information.
