For the 2026 Season, GHSC is continuing with on-line registration. Registration will begin on April 1st and continue to June 6th.
Please refer to the age matrix to determine the proper age group for your child.
U8 players, may play up one age group (to U10). U7 players are strongly discouraged from playing up to U10. However, they may petition for permission. U6 players may not play up unless the Rec Membership Director and the player’s coach and parent determines that they are emotionally and physically ready. All other age groups may play up one age group.
No. Our state governing body, US Club Soccer, does not allow a child to play below his or her age group due to small stature or lack of experience. On very rare occasions, an approval for a child “playing down” can be granted due to rare medical conditions upon showing of proper documentation and via vote of the league’s board of managers.
On-line registration for the 2026 season begins April 1st.
The cost varies by age group. A $100 refundable volunteer fee per family is added to all age groups EXCEPT Tots. 2026 Registration Fees are as follows:
Tots: $95; includes program shirt that the player may keep
U6: $100.00 include program shirt that the payer may keep.
U7 – U10: $130.00 (includes referee fees)
U11 – U19: $160.00 (includes referee fees)
If your registration is not completed correctly, you will not receive a completion email letting you know that you have successfully registered. If you have uploaded an improper photo or birth certificate, the registrar will contact you informing you what you need to do in order for your registration to be completed. Your child will not be considered registered until you correctly finish the process and submit payment that has cleared the bank.
The final date to register your child for the 2026 season will be June 6th. Registrations after that date will not be accepted. The only exception will be if we are in need of players of a certain age to fill out a team. Those situations will be marketed via email.
The photo you submit is used to create a Player Pass/Team Roster for players in U10 through U19. Any U10-U19 player without a photo on the team roster or player pass will not be allowed to play in a game.
All registration is now on line.
Please see the Volunteer Policy and Information Page.
Please e-mail the registrar if you wish to withdraw your child’s registration. Refunds are available, but the amount of the refund depends upon the date you withdraw from the club. Please note that the date you withdraw is considered to be the date you e-mail the registrar. Refunds are issued as follows:
*Before July 1 (U13-U19) and July 15 (Tots-U12): Full refund of all registration and volunteer fees.
*July 2-July 15 (U13-U19) and July 16-30 (Tots-U12): Partial refund consisting of half the amount of your registration fees and the full amount of your volunteer fees.
*On or after July 16 (U13-U19) and July 31 (Tots-U12): No refund of registration fees or volunteer fees. Exception is if the volunteer commitment has been met.
Upon request, and as long as registration is submitted correctly and on time, U5/6 players and U8 and older players may return to their previous team. Players moving from U6 to U7 do not have returning player rights as teams are newly formed. U7 is single gender, and as U6 is co-ed, all U7 teams are considered newly formed. There are no returning players.
There is a place on the registration form for special requests. While the GHSC cannot guarantee that the request will be granted, every effort will be made to accommodate the request, as long as the registration paperwork was submitted correctly and on time.
GHSC forms teams in late June. Once the teams are formed, each coach is required to contact the families on their team and inform them that they are their coach. AGCs also contact each team. If you have not heard from a coach by July 1st, please contact the appropriate Age Group Coordinator. E-mail addresses for all of the Age Group Coordinators can be found on the board page.
For U13-U19, Practices may begin on July 1st. U6-U12 practices may begin July 6.
When and where are practices held?
Practice schedules will not be set until after teams are formed, but generally practices are two evenings per week, Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday. We try to start late enough that parents can get off work first, and early enough so kids can get home at a reasonable time. Practices are held in local parks, but which park varies depending on the age group.
For U13-U19 teams, the 2026 season will begin in July (practices) and August (games). U6-U12 teams, the 2026 season will begin in July (practices) and August (games).
GHSC provides all Tots and U6 players with a T-shirt that they may keep. Parents are required to provide shorts, socks and shin guards. For ages U7 though U19, parents will purchase a uniform (jersey, shorts, socks) during registration. The cost is $28 and will be paid during registration. The uniform will be shipped to GHSC and distributed to coaches in July. The uniform belongs to the player and does not need to be returned. The uniform may be worn in subsequent years. Parents are required to provide shin guards and shoes.
It is helpful if each child has their own ball to bring to practice. Sizes are as follows:
Tots – U8: Size 3
U10 – U12: Size 4
U13 – U19: Size 5
That is great! We are always on the lookout for dedicated people who are willing to volunteer their time to teach our children this wonderful game! Please contact our Rec Membership Director at recmembership@greenhavensoccer.com
