Players will have a team assignment for every season of play, with set practice times and game days each week of the season according to age group. The RCSL is creating a platform for players in our community to benefit from a team environment while enjoying playing the “Beautiful Game” in our city.
Team practices will be held by age group, with older groups learning higher-level concepts of the game and system of play. Coaches are prepared to lead these sessions with the updated educational goals of the RCSL, taking care to enhance player development from the individual level to the whole-team dynamic.
Age requirements U4-5 up to U14 and we will grow up to U23. Jerseys, shorts, and shin guards are provided for all players. We welcome any level of talent from beginner to advanced to come out to play, meet new friends, and grow with us.
With equipment and travel requirements, soccer can be expensive. The Rochester City Soccer League offers greater accessibility by keeping fees low at $25 per child, with scholarships available. Our goal is that players of all economic backgrounds can benefit from organized soccer.
