CHICAGO METROPOLITAN SPORTS ASSOCIATION
OUTDOOR SOCCER LEAGUE
THE LEAGUE:
The CMSA co-ed outdoor soccer league will consist of an 8-week session on Fridays from June 6th through August 1st with play occurring from 7:00pm to 9:00pm. In addition to the 8-game season, we will also offer a 2-hour practice on May 16th, 23rd, and 30th.
If this is your first time participating in a CMSA soccer league, you are required to attend at least one of the May practices. This will allow us an opportunity assess each players experience level and help ensure we create equally balanced teams.
For this season, we will pilot a new format for outdoor soccer. We will simultaneously be playing two 7v7 (including goalies) half-field games at once. Each team will be playing three 30-minute games each evening.
LEVEL OF COMPETITION: As each player’s skill level will be considered in the creation of teams, the CMSA outdoor season is geared towards players of beginning, intermediate and advanced skill levels. Some prior soccer experience would be helpful.
REGISTRATION: The league will require a minimum of 50 and be capped at 66 players. Registration will be on a first-come, first-served basis and will begin in early May.
