Fall Soccer Schedules can be picked up at the Rec Center after

5:00pm on Friday, August 26th. 

Volunteer Coach meeting & Clinic is Thursday, August 25th at 6:00 at the Rec Center.

First practice for all teams will be Thursday, August 29.

Girls and boys practice and play games twice per week in this program -- usually Mondays and Thursdays --  there may be a Tuesday or two as we work around the high school and university soccer schedules -- many of the high school and university soccer players help with this league so we work around their varsity schedules.  The program is held between 5:45 and 7:30pm.  All activity is at the Pepsi Cola Soccer Complex.

Kindergarten through 4th Grade Leagues emphasize having fun and learning the game through playing -- referees direct the game while coaches insure that everyone plays.  Skill development occurs with time, and the best way to keep children interested is to make sure that FUN and PARTICIPATION are the main focus of all activities.  This philosophy is strongly encouraged through the South Dakota Soccer Association as well as the Mitchell Parks & Recreation Department for this age group. VOLUNTEER TEAM LEADERS (COACHES) ARE NEEDED.  WE PREFER TO HAVE 2 COACHES PER TEAM, SO WE NEED MANY VOLUNTEERS!! PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN - NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY - TRAINING IS PROVIDED.  Two nights of practice will be skills clinics directed by the DWU Men's and Women's Soccer players.

5th & 6th grade leagues are coached by college soccer players, so volunteer parents are not required for this age group.

Travelling teams are available through the Mitchell Soccer Association at www.mitchellsoccer.org
