RECREATIONAL SOCCER
The SF Glens Recreational soccer program is designed for players 2nd grade through 4th grade and aims to provide an opportunity for players to have fun and learn the sport. Our goal is to instill a natural love for the game of soccer that not only the player enjoys, but the whole family. The program is primarily devoted to the enjoyment and development of soccer players without the emphasis on travel or high level competition. Players do not attend any tryouts to be placed on recreational teams.
SF Rec and Park Department (SFRPD) requires all recreational players play at least 50% of the playing time to promote healthy playing time for recreational players. If you have a group of friends/classmates that would like to play together, please let us know. We also offer the MLS GO program for children in Kindergarten through 3rd grade. This program includes eight Sunday sessions, each lasting 90 minutes, combining both practice and gameplay in a fun and engaging format. Registration information We form teams that play in the SFYS recreational league. Please note that SF Glens does not have control of the fields allocation process as SFRPD assigns priority to teams randomly.
