about the recreation (rec) program

The SCYSC Recreation program runs in the fall and spring. Between U3-U4 TinyTykes and U5-U14 Recreation, the program attracts over 600 players annually. Player development progresses with the age of the players - establishing foundational skills and knowledge in our younger groups (U3-U8), small group attacking and defending in the tween years (U9-U12) and team development in the older group (U13+). It is an important stepping stone to Competitive (travel) soccer for those who want to play at a more competitive level. Come play with friends, learn the game and maintain an interest in soccer!

Beginning in the 2026–27 season, SCYSC will adopt the school-year, grade-based age grouping recommended by US Youth Soccer,  aligning players with their school peers.

Volunteer coaches will receive support from a professional soccer coach who will help guide every practice session. ​Coaching is a great opportunity to be more involved in your child's youth sports experience and a positive role model for kids in the community.
