About
Our Spring Program
Our Spring Program will once again enroll children ages 5 through 13. A child’s age on August 1, 2007 is their “playing age” for the entire 2007 Season, which includes Spring 2008. If you want your child to play in an age group other than the one the computer will assign them to based on their birthdate, you must send an email to info@fairmountsoccer.org.
Times
and Locations New this year, the Eyas (ages 5 and 6) and the Juniors (ages 7 and 8) will play on Saturday mornings
at the beautiful Starfinder Urban Promise Center in Manayunk at 4015 Main Street. The
The
Intermediate (ages 9 and 10) and the Senior (ages 11 through 13)
Divisions will play on Sunday mornings from 1:00PM to 2:30PM, at Edgely Fields, our outdoor fields in Fairmount Park where
we have our Fall Season. At the
beginning of each session, the Trainers
(Keith and Eric Jutkowitz, longtime Fairmount
Soccer players and now students at Temple) will work with both groups together
on both individual and team skills, and
then the age groups will separate for their games. New this season for the Spring,
we hope to have enough players to have small set teams, as opposed to the
“pick-up” format we used last year.
Dates
Spring Soccer will start on April 19/20 and continue for 6 weeks,
skipping Memorial Day Weekend. The last
Session will be May 31/June 1.
Equipment Each player must wear shin pads to each
session. If the child was not issues soccer socks
in an earlier season, we will provide a pair.
Special soccer shoes are not required, neither on the artificial turf or the natural
grass. Each child should bring a ball to
each session. The Eyas
should bring a Size 3 ball ; All other players should have a Size 4
Ball. All players will be issued a Spring 2008 T-Shirt.
Fees The fee is still $60 for Spring
Intramural Soccer.
Practices There are no mid-week practices
in Spring Intramural Soccer. Each group
will meet once a week.
