How are teams organized?
Players are placed into divisions (Div1 - Div6) with four teams in each division.
Divisions 1 & 2 will be coach throw.
Divisions 3 will be either coach throw or player throw.

Divisions 4-6 will be player throw.

Players need to be 10.5 as of January 1st to be in player throw, sorry no exceptions 

Special requests (to play with others) often bump players up or down a division. We are able to accommodate special requests only when the overall age range works.


When is the season and what time do we play?

The Indoor League commences in January. The program is held on Saturday evenings and includes a 20-minute practice followed by a 55 minute game.

NOTE - Dates and times are tentative until schedule is sent out the first week of January!  There will be no games on the Easter long weekend.  

Where do we play?

The teams practice and play at the Calgary Foothills Soccer Club

111 Exploration Ave SE. (see map under the Fields tab)

Special requests?
You can make a special request on the registration form to be on a specific team, or request to be on the same team as a friend. Special requests may result in being moved up or down an division or to a different team.


I see on the website that most games are on Saturdays are there practices?
Yes, games are on Saturday. Twenty-minute practices are conducted prior to the game each week. Your scheduled time is the start of practice.

 
What size footballs are used?
 We use a Junior size football and the ball we use is the

"Wilson Ultimate Composite NFL Junior Football" which you can sometimes pick-up at Walmart.

For the oldest division we use the Wilson NCAA 1005 Leather Football.

Can I Coach or Volunteer?

We need a parent to assist with player rotation. This is simple to do and a great way to get involved! If you can help with this let your coach know, we appreciate it!
