Sherrills Ford Optimist is pleased to be able to offer soccer for the 2020 Fall season! As with many other things due to the COVID-19 pandemic, soccer will look different this year.

We will play a modified version of a soccer game traditionally played indoors on a basketball court, called Futsal. The fields we play on will be 100'x50'.  Futsal is played 5v5 with no throw-ins and no offside. It's a pass-oriented game, which is great for skill development.

All of our games will be played "in-house" meaning only SFO teams will be playing in our league.  We will limit team size to 8 or 9 per team with a head coach and assistant.

We hope to start evaluations and practices sometime around the first of September.  Our goal is to have two practices per week for the first month or so and then transition to one practice and one game per week.

Registration for the 2020 season is $100 per player. We plan to offer soccer for the following age groups, all co-ed. Ages are as of July 31, 2020.  Registration ends 8/31/2020 at Noon. Evaluations will begin that evening at 6:00pm for age groups U8 - U19. No evaluations for U6.

• U6: ages 4 & 5
• U8: ages 6 & 7
• U10: ages 8 & 9
• U13: ages 10, 11, & 12
• U16: ages 13, 14, & 15
• U19: ages 16, 17, & 18

For the older ages levels, skill level may indicate that a player should play at the next higher age group instead of their natural age group. That will be determined on a case by case basis.

The athletic fields at Sherrills Ford Optimist are available for outside organizations and travel sports teams to rent.

• $80 per field per month for weekly practices, not to exceed two hours per week                                   (1 month = 4 weeks, 8hrs = $10/hr)  We can prorate for monthly rentals.
• $100 per day for full day field use, such as tournaments
• $20 per hour for any other use
• Light Fees: $20 per field per hour (Assessed for any field rental times that take place after sunset)
