Northmont Soccer Association

Kickers

Kickers is a recreational league for boys and girls who are 13 and 14 years old. All practices and games will be held at the Englewood Soccer Complex at Ward field on Hoke Rd in Englewood. Practice days/times are held at the volunteer coaches' preference, and could be once or twice a week. All games will be played on Saturdays with an occasional Sunday through the course of the season. At the Kickers level, we try our best to separate the boys and girls into different leagues, however low registration numbers will force us to combine the divisions into a coed league. Also due to low participant levels- this division may travel to other locations for games.
