SFX Youth Soccer for Kids Ages 4 – 13

Since 1984, SFX Soccer has been dedicated to fostering good sportsmanship while teaching the game of soccer. Our volunteer coaches offer positive instruction in a fun, safe environment that builds community and teamwork through soccer.

The schedules are finalized sometime in early September and available before the season begins on September 19. Games are on Saturday mornings and will go through mid-November. All games are at the Prospect Park Long Meadow Ballfields.

Teams are not expected to hold weekday practices. Players should arrive 30 minutes before their scheduled game to warm up and participate in practice drills. Coaches may hold an additional weekday practice, but it is not required.

Players will be given a uniform (jersey, shorts, and socks) but should get cleats or sneakers and must bring and wear their own shin guards.

You can make teammate- and/or player-requests when you register, so please don’t hesitate to organize among your children’s friends! But keep in mind we have 8 or 12 players maximum per team, depending on the division.
