Quality and Affordable Youth Soccer Teams in Highlands Ranch
HRSA provided Recreational Teams from U6 (Birth Year 2014) to U15 (Birth Year 2005). These teams all play a variety of game types, from small-sided 3v3 soccer games to 9v9.
All Recreational players should receive at least 50% playing time in game situations. All Rec Team Coaches are volunteers, and utilize some form of volunteer Referees, depending on the age of the team (outlined below). Teams will have 7-8 games per season, typically on Saturdays. An occasional Sunday or weekday game may occur due to weather/reschedules. Age groups have “flights” of teams (where available) to match the most appropriate level of competition for each team.
