3v3 Recreational Soccer Tournament

June 8th & 9th

WHY PLAY IN A 3V3 TOURNAMENT?

With fewer players on the field, each player has more opportunities to touch the ball, using and improving their soccer skills. Small-sided games can develop your player's decision-making, technical attributes, tactical knowledge and physical conditioning through functional movements. Small-sided soccer is FUN and allows more opportunities to score. Scoring can increase self-esteem, character development and team chemistry!

Each player will sign-up separately, we will capture your coaches name and the waiver for the event.  Don't have a team? List "FREE AGENT" and will place onto a roster.

I addressed the two most common questions regarding this event for our Soccer Program. 

Q:  Some of our kids want to play, however our coach is unavailable this weekend.
A:  We can help you get set, we have free clinic days and 3v3 format is a fast paced game so coaches are there to help with substitution and getting the kids playing. We will help. During registration list the kids you want together and we will place them.

Q:  My kid wants to play but he doesn't know anyone else.
A:  Register as a free agent and we will find them a team to play on and work on ensuring they have a coach come game day.
