With over 840 recreation players, Fall Soccer is the largest USCAA sport program. The Fall Soccer Program is a comprehensive In-House soccer program that provides the children of Upper St. Clair an opportunity to enjoy the sport of soccer in an instructional and fun environment.
The program starts with a U-6 micro soccer league for children 5 years old between as of July 31st of the current year (Soccer groups are defined by “under an age as of July 31 of the current year” heading such as Under 6 or U-6). This program combines simple skills development with fun “small-sided” games in a single one and a quarter hour session over 8 consecutive Saturdays in the fall (weather permitting) . Depending upon the registration numbers, the U-6 league is co-ed or divided into boy and girl leagues.
For the balance of the leagues, U-8, U-10, U-12, and U-14/16 age groups, separate leagues are provided for both girls and boys, plus a U19 coed league.
Registration for Fall Soccer will begin in May and should be done on-line through the USCAA website. The season starts in late August and is typically consists of two training sessions a week [one team practice and one USC Soccer Academy session (optional)] and eight (8) games, on eight (8) consecutive Saturdays (weather permitting). The games start the first Saturday following the Labor Day Holiday.
The Fall Soccer Program is a recreational and instructional soccer program, emphasizing teamwork, improvement of physical stamina, development of basic soccer skills, and having fun. Our guiding principle is full participation by all players. As a result, we have made it a rule in all our leagues that all players must play at least half of every game.
