In-House Clinic Soccer
Our 4-7 year olds participate in our In-House Clinic program. Two levels of teams are formed, Junior (4 / 5 year olds) and Senior (6/7+ year olds). These age groups offer the first exposure to soccer so fun is rule ONE.
All practices and games are located at the Mount Airy Middle School Soccer Fields. Practices are one day each week, as determined by the coach, and last roughly an hour. Games (4 v 4) occur on Saturday mornings and are officiated by the coaches.
Clinic Soccer will begin early April 2023
Shirts and Socks are provided – Shin Guards are required, soccer cleats are recommended.

Inhouse First / Second Grade 5v5 Soccer (New Fall 2022)
This new program is an extension of our Inhouse Clinic Program that allows 1st / 2nd grade players an opportunity to play with players their own age prior to playing in the URSL Recreational Travel league.
This is a bridge program for players who are too old for the 6/7 Clinc Program and not ready for the URSL 3rd/4th grade travel league.
Players that are ready for Travel can move directly to 3rd / 4th Recreational Travel instead of playing in this inhouse program.
Travel Soccer (3rd grade up)
Travel Soccer will begin Mid to Late March 2023
Our 8-15 year olds and High School age players make up the Travel Soccer Program, we will offer older age groups if there are enough players. The soccer program adheres to the age groups of the United Recreational Soccer League(URSL), Elite Development Program (EDP) and the Central Maryland Short Sided Soccer League (CMSSL).
If you are unsure of the are group that your child falls within, register your child where you think and we will correct if necessary.
The Maryland State Youth Soccer Administration are adapting the U.S. Soccer birth year criteria for age level player placement.
The age levels will be determined by the birth year / grade level.
