This page contains information about our Fall Recreational Soccer Season. Our season is for boys turning 5 this year up to 19 years of age.
Registration
Fall Registration opens in May and soft-closes July 15th. Anyone registered by July 15th is guaranteed to be placed on a team. There are no try-outs. Following July 15th, registration may remain open for divisions that still need additional players. Once all teams in a division are full, registration for that division will close.
Once registration closes for a division, it will take about 2 weeks to form team rosters and identify coaches. Around the 1st of August, coaches will contact players and let them know the practice schedule.
Cost
For the 2024 season, the early-bird fee is $75. Regular and late fees are TBD.
Game Schedule
There are 10 regular season games. The first 2 games happen in August before Labor Day Weekend, usually on Saturdays. There are no games Labor Day Weekend. Following Labor Day, there will be 1 game each Saturday for 7 weeks. The one remaining game will be played on a Sunday sometime in September. The weekend following the regular season, there will be a short multi-game tournament. Pairs for the tournament will be determined based on regular season game results.
Game times will vary from week to week. Saturday games will run from 9am to 5pm while Sunday games will run noon – 5pm. Exact game times will not be known until the schedule comes out in mid August.
Practice Schedule
Practice schedules are set by the coach of each team and vary greatly. We will not know your team’s practice schedule until players are assigned to a team and the coach secures a practice time. Typical practice times are weekdays between 4pm and 7pm. Some coaches may begin practices immediately, while others may wait until the week of the first game.
For players in our Dribblers(U5) & Trappers(U6) Divisions (players turning 5 or 6 in the current year), we offer an additional practice time prior to each game. Some Dribblers & Trappers coaches use this time as their only practice. Some choose not to use it at all.
Cincinnati United Academy
As part of our fall Soccer Season, players in our Trappers(U6), Shooters(U7), and Passers(U8) divisions may participate for free in our CU Academy. CU Academy is one night a week for 5 weeks, where professionally trained CU coaches run a soccer practice session.
