Rowayton Youth Soccer is a recreational community soccer program run by volunteers for children from 4-14 years old. While games are certainly competitive, recreation is our priority: the time commitment is limited to two days and a couple of hours per week; all play occurs locally in Rowayton (except for middle-schoolers); practices are run as clinics by a professional trainer; and referees, scoring and team standings are limited to the older age groups, beginning with the 8-11 year olds. We don’t check birth certificates, but we do require you to sign a release form.
The 2010 Rowayton Youth Soccer program consists of four different age groups and will run for 10 weeks from September 4 through November 6. We have an on-line registration program that you can link to below beginning on June 1. Registrations received after August 20 will incur a late-fee of $25 and will be accepted on a space-available basis only. We will NOT be extending our late fee deadline this year.
