Registration Age Breakdown

The effective date of age determination for registration shall be the player's age as of December 31 looking ahead of the Membership Year. Example: For MY2020 the
division the child will be placed in will be determined based on their age as of December 31, 2021. This age determination does not apply to Playground or Schoolyard division.

** Playground is a program specially designed for 3 to 5 year olds to develop Fundamental Motor Skills that will prepare the child for soccer and other sports. The player must be 3 years old by the date of the first Region activity. The Region must set the registration minimum age date to the day and month of first acitivity minus three years.
For example, if your first activity is 9/2/2020 your minimum age date will be 9/2/2017 so that the child can be three years old by that date.

*** Schoolyard is a program designed for 4 & 5 year olds that continues the learning of fundamental motor skills and introduces soccer skills. The player must
be 4 years old by the date of the first Region activity. The Region must set the registration minimum age date to the day and month of first acitivity minus four years.
For example, if your first activity is 9/2/2020 your minimum age date will be 9/2/2016 so that the child can be four years old by that date.

Both Programs align with US Soccer's Player Development Initiatives.
