taught the basics of a given sport. The program is strictly
recreational in nature and emphasizes equal opportunity for involvement
and participation.

Program
Format
League games will be played on Saturday mornings and
Tuesday evenings if needed. All
teams will play a round robin schedule
and are guaranteed a minimum of six games. League play will
begin mid to late March. Please note: More than likely,
teams will be coed (boys & girls together), however separate boys
and girls teams may be formed if sufficient registration numbers
exist. The league will have some conflict with youth volleyball. Please note on your registration form if
your child is also playing volleyball. (The below is subject to change depending
upon registration numbers.)
1st and 2nd Grade Micro
Soccer: Games are played 4 vs. 4 with 6-8 players on
a team. A size 4 ball is used. No goalie is
used and no game scores or league standings are kept. The
fundamentals
of the game
such as dribbling, passing, throw-ins, and teamwork will be
emphasized.
3rd and 4th Grade Micro Soccer: Games are played 5 vs. 5 with 7-9
players on a team. A size 4 ball is used. No goalie is used
and no game scores or league standings are kept. The level of
play is more aggressive while focusing on fundamentals.
5th and 6th Grade Soccer: Games are played 7 vs. 7 with 8-10
players on a team. A size 5 ball is used. A goalie is
used. Game scores are kept but not league standings.
Equipment
Shin guards are required. Soft rubber spiked shoes only.
No hard plastic or metal cleats are allowed! Tennis shoes are
acceptable. Soccer balls will be provided. Shin guards and
shoes are player’s responsibility.
Uniforms
Youth participating in
Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports need
to have
two uniform t-shirts, one red and one blue. The playing schedule
dictates which color shirt to wear for each game. These shirts
are used for all youth sport programs and are available in a variety of
youth and adult sizes. They are available for purchase at the
Civic Center.
Rosters
Rosters for all teams are formed via random selection. Parents
may request their child be placed on a team with one
other child
for legitimate
carpooling reasons. Some carpooling requests may not occur.
This information needs to be
indicated on the registration form (no exceptions). Once teams
are formed,
coaches are responsible for contacting players on their rosters to set
up practices and distribute information.
Coaches
Wahoo Parks and Recreation utilizes volunteer coaches for all youth
sport programs. All
head coaches are required to attend the coaches' meeting or meet with
the league director. Instruction on general coaching
philosophy and
principles as well as sport-specific information will be discussed.
Schedules
Playing schedules will be available on or after March 15th on
this web page.
Miscellaneous
Participants and their parents/guardians should be aware that there is
a risk of injury during participation in Wahoo Parks and Recreation
youth sports
due to the inherent nature of the activities. Individuals
participate in Parks and Recreation youth sports at their own risk.
