About ECSA

invitations, recruiting or any like process to roster players selectively to any team on the basis of talent or ability.
The system utilized for rostering the players must be a fair and balanced distribution of
playing talent among all teams participating.

2025 Spring Recreation Season

Piney Green Soccer Club (PGSC) is driven to provide the best environment to challenge players to reach their maximum potential. Our goal is to introduce soccer in the Piney Green area at the recreational level in hopes our players move on to the highest level of soccer.

The PGSC Recreational Program is open to all children aged 3 to 19 and promotes fun while teaching players sportsmanship and the basic skills (passing, trapping, dribbling, shooting) necessary to succeed in soccer. No tryout is required to be placed on a team at the recreational level. Developmental recreational soccer is divided into two seasons, fall and spring with players having to re-register each season.

Shin-guards are required for all players during practices and games. Soccer cleats required for our 7U and older players while they are recommended but not required for our micro division. Football and baseball cleats are not allowed due to the extra "toe cleat" on the top.
