2025 Fall rec Registration

Program Overview
Towson United Girls Soccer provides a fun and competitive environment that encourages the development of skills and fosters good sportsmanship. In 2024, we had over 500 players and 125 volunteers and we're excited to get our 2025 season started!
Registration for the 2025 Fall Soccer program will open in May, and we expect it to close in June. We aim to have rosters finalized in early August with practices set to begin the week of August 18, 2025, with the first games to be played on Saturday, September 6, 2025.
U6 CLINIC
There is to be NO heading of the ball in practice or games as per US Youth Soccer Guidelines.
Cleats are not required at this age level, but all players must have shin guards. If you bring a water bottle, make sure it is labeled with your daughter's name. All players will receive a team jersey, shorts, soccer socks, and a soccer ball.
The U6 program is a clinic format that emphasizes skill development through age-appropriate games and activities. Players will learn the basics of dribbling, shooting, and team play in a fun and engaging way. At the U6 level, enthusiastic coaches lead sessions in which they introduce play that energizes and engages the players as a way to get coaches and players off on the right foot.
Emphasis of the clinic is on building skills and a love of the game rather than winning and losing. We do not keep score during the games, nor do we keep standings. In a relaxed environment, we celebrate developmental successes, cheer for both teams, and create a foundation for good sportsmanship and a desire to participate and grow.
Session Format:
In the first 30 minutes, we will guide children through activities that emphasize age-appropriate skills such as dribbling, passing, shooting, and receiving the ball. These activities are designed to allow for maximum touching of the ball, often with one ball per child or pair. Following the activities, children will play scrimmages against another team on a small field that is typically an eighth the size of a conventional field.
Team Formation:
We form teams balanced by age with consideration for the school your child attends and carpool requests. We do our best to place every clinic player onto a team with some schoolmates; however, we limit team roster sizes at all age levels to maximize the actual playing experience for all players. So, in fairness to all players, we do not form “school teams” and almost every team will have a mix of two or three schools.
Safety:
For the safety of the children, no jewelry is allowed on the playing field. This means no necklaces, bracelets, or earrings.

Playoff Rules:
SUDDEN DEATH, “BRAVEHEART,” FOR PLAYOFF GAMES
1. Overtime play, as follows with the first score ending the event:
1.1. There is no offside during these sudden death overtime periods
1.2. At the end of the game, all players who were on the field at the end of the game report immediately to the center circle (no additional players are allowed in the center circle). Coaches have to select the players to remain on the field. All other players then report to the sidelines and play continues.
1.3. A coin flip is then held with the home team calling the flip. The winner of the toss will determine which goal they want to defend, play then starts with a contested ball drop at midfield.
1.4. 11v11 will remove 4 players per team from players on the field at the end of the game; 9v9 will remove 4 players per team from players on the field at the end of the game; 7v7 will remove 3 players per team from players on the field at the end of the game. Please note that if a game ends with a team playing man-down due to red card, play will continue in this sudden death format with that team still man-down. All formats using no goalkeeper.
1.5. No substitutions in overtime (only exception will be obvious injuries – please note that being tired is NOT an injury)
1.6. Play will continue with a contested drop ball at midfield and periods lasting 5 minutes. If there is no score at the end of 5 minutes, an additional player is removed from each team, and play will continue for another 5 minutes. This will continue until there is a score.
1.7. At the end of each period coaches have 30 seconds to designate a player to be removed, if the coach does not do so in an allotted time, the referee may select a player to go off and then play resumes (teams who ended a period a player down due to injury do not remove a player in the next period for play to continue).
1.8. As each period ends, teams are required to switch ends.
1.9. Cards given during this overtime are treated like a regular match. Red Card resulting in team playing a player down. Yellow card resulting in the player leaving the field, only to return at the next appropriate substitution opportunity during that period.
1.10. If a penalty kick is awarded, the defending team may place a defender on the goal line in front of the net. This defender can use any part of the body except the hands.
1.11. If no score has been recorded by either team following the 3v3 level of play, each team removes one more player and then play resumes with a drop ball at midfield with 2v2 without time limit until goal is scored.
