As we continue to grow and enhance our soccer programs, we are exploring the possibility of adding a new U16 division that would feature 7v7 play. This new division aims to provide more opportunities for our older players to stay engaged and enjoy the game they love.

To make this possible, we need your input! We are asking parents to fill out a brief interest form to help us gauge the level of interest and feasibility of launching this new division. Your feedback is crucial in helping us make informed decisions that best serve our community.

Please take a few minutes to complete the interest form. You can access the form here: U16 Interest Form.

There are several benefits to playing 7v7 soccer at the U16 level:

1. Increased Touches on the Ball: With fewer players on the field, each player gets more opportunities to touch the ball, which can help improve their technical skills like dribbling, passing, and shooting.

2. Better Understanding of the Game: Smaller-sided games require players to be more involved in both attacking and defending, helping them develop a better understanding of positioning, spatial awareness, and tactical decision-making.

3. Enhanced Fitness: The smaller field and fewer players mean that the game is more physically demanding, which can help improve players' fitness levels.

4. Improved Communication and Teamwork: Players need to communicate more effectively and work closely with their teammates, which can enhance their teamwork and leadership skills.

5. More Fun and Engagement: Smaller-sided games are often more engaging and enjoyable for players, as they are more involved in the action and have more opportunities to make an impact.
