Fall Little Juniors Soccer Program

 
The purpose of the Tonka United Soccer Association (TUSA) little juniors program is to provide an opportunity for young players and their families to have fun while learning about soccer. TUSA operates independently of the Hopkins/Minnetonka Rec and Chanhassen Park & Rec, under the support and direction of the TUSA Board with the help of a full-time Director of Operations, Director of Coaching and Rec Director. The club relies on parents as volunteer coaches to help provide a positive experience for each team. You can volunteer to coach during the online registration process.

Registration for the fall season is open as of Wednesday, July 10th, 2019. Please register your child for the grade they are entering for the fall of 2019. If the registration system does not allow you to register for the appropriate age group, please email Ben Cherney, the director of recreational soccer, at [email protected].

All Tonka United little juniors players need to use the current recreational uniform - we have used this same uniform set since the spring/summer 2017 season. You can order the uniform through an online store. Players in the pre-k and kindergarten leagues do not need to order a uniform - team color shirts are included in the registration cost.

  • Games will be played on Saturday mornings and early afternoons at Freeman Park.
  • Cost - $90
  • Uniforms - $45 (If you don't have one already; note that pre-k and kindergarten players do not need to order uniforms.)
  • Season runs September 7th through October 12th.
  • Teams do not hold additional practices during the fall season.
  • Fall leagues are available to players age four through 5th grade.

At TUSA, we play small-sided games to give players an opportunity to get more "touches on the ball". All players should play about the same amount of time in each game and should have an opportunity to play in each position. This is a NO score, NO standings, NO protest league.This rule applies to coaches, parents, players and spectators

While our rules are based on the FIFA Laws of Soccer, they have been modified to establish an environment for a healthy, fun program as well as create opportunities for every player to be successful. Click HERE to go to the Rules page.
