SPRING SOCCER PROGRAM
Introduction
The LVSA Spring Recreation Soccer League is a condensed program due to competing factors with other sporting activities in Long Valley for fields and other resources. We modify our divisions based on number of registered players for each age group.
Spring Soccer Program
Our concept is to have organized pick-up games for each division, where the players will be placed on a team at each game. Therefore, participants will not be assigned to a single team for the season, instead each week we will “choose up sides” and play – with adult volunteers overseeing each session. Our season will run from April to May and we estimate appoximately 7 or 8 games on Saturdays during that timeframe. Younger children (e.g. Kindergarten, 1st graders) may have the boys and girls combined. The divisions will be designed based on the number of participants that register to ensure we have the proper number of players for games. There are no practices, only games!

- All Other Grades - Soccer cleats are recommended. No baseball cleats (they have a spike in the toe).
- No jewelry, necklaces, earrings, bracelets etc. may be worn during games in order to reduce the chance of injury to a player.
- Baseball hats cannot be worn by players. Tie backs for hair are allowed, although they should be of a type that will not cause injury if contacted by another player or the ball.
Refund Policy
The Long Valley Soccer Association will not refund registration fees under any circumstances with the only exception being a late registrant who is on the wait-list and is unable to be placed in the program.
