How to Register
Recreation Soccer
HSC offers outdoor soccer in the fall and spring for ages U5-U19. Boys and girls play on separate teams – except U19 is Coed. Each season has a separate registration. Age divisions U5-U8 receive participation trophies/medals at the end of the season. Age divisions U10 – U19 receive a player gift and play in an end of year tournament (weather and time permitting) and receive champions or finalists medals.
The "U" stands for "Under". For example, the U5 is Under 5. List next to each division number during registration is the birth year for player.
Age Divisions run from Fall to Spring. Each Fall, the age bracket changes.
All registrations received after the deadline are considered late and will be placed on the waitlist. Play-Up requests will NOT be accepted after the registration deadline. There is no charge to be placed on the waitlist. You must register online. If you have forgotten your login information, please do not create another account. You will lose all of your player's history. Instead contact SportsConnect (866-258-3303) for help.

All players 18 and older are required to complete SafeSport training to be eligible to play. Information on how to complete SafeSport training is available under the Coaches tab.
Practice
All practices are at Drakes Creek Soccer Complex. Our volunteer coaches choose the time/day of their practices based on field space. Practices may start up to two weeks before the first game. U5, U6 and U7 will practice 1 time per week. U8 – U19 will practice 2 times per week.
Make-Up Practices: Due to the number of teams, practice fields are booked back-to-back throughout the week.
Games
All games are played at the Drakes Creek Soccer Complex. Games are played on Saturdays with the possibility of an occasional Monday or Tuesday night game. If any age division has an odd number of teams, each Saturday one team will have a bye. Saturday games are scheduled starting at 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.
Make-Up Games: The yearly calendar has make-up days built into the season. Make-up games or doubleheaders can be played any day during the week.
Required Equipment
• Soccer cleats (any cleats with the "toe cleat" such as baseball or football cleats are NOT allowed)
• Shin guards (required to participate in practices or games)
• Soccer ball (U5-U8 size 3, U9-U12 size 4, U14-U19 size 5)
• Soccer socks (for practices)
Special Requests
Being the largest sports league in Sumner County, we must limit special requests. Our division directors try and place siblings on the same practice nights. While this is not guaranteed, we will try our best. We also provide the opportunity during registration to request a certain practice night you CANNOT practice. With the number of teams participating, this is sometimes not possible. You can also email your DIVISION DIRECTOR any additional requests.
