Spring Soccer- Registration January 9, 2023 

Spotsylvania County Parks and Recreation offers both Spring and Fall Soccer. Our program offers co-ed and girls leagues open to youth age 4 to 18 years old for Spotsylvania County residents. The age determination date is July 31, 2023. A birth certificate is required at the time of registration unless one is already on file with the Spotsylvania Parks and Recreation Department. The registration fee is $55 per person. 

Boys ages 9 to 14 (Minor, Major, Prep Baseball League) and girls ages 9 to 10 (Rookie Softball League) (as of July 31, 2023) may not participate in both Spring Soccer and Baseball/Softball due to overlapping seasons.

Practices & Games

League games will be played weekday evenings and Saturdays beginning in April and continuing through June at various locations throughout the County. Play-offs, for those leagues that have them, will start within one week after the regular season is concluded. The Tot/Developmental Program (non-competitive, instructional league) will be held for approximately six weeks beginning in late March.

Players that register by the deadline will be contacted by a coach by March 10, 2023 as to which team they are on.  Tot/Developmental players will be contacted by March 24, 2023.
