Recreation League

The Recreation league offers an opportunity for young players to build friendships, develop community and build a passion for the game through friendly competition.  The program is managed by our professional soccer staff with years of experience in youth development, however all teams are coached by parent volunteers. We offer guidance to volunteer coaches to support a positive learning environment.

DUSC will strive to honor player requests wherever possible but cannot guarantee that all requests can be made. Our aim is to create evenly balanced teams and allow players to continue current relationships and develop new friendships. Please note that we cannot guarantee all requests, otherwise we risk diluting the competitiveness and enjoyment for all involved. Requests should be made at registration (on-line).
