Recreation Soccer U4-U14

Recreation Soccer – Spring 2025 Registration

Here at Tormenta FC, we consider the Recreation Soccer Program to be the heartbeat of our club. Recreation soccer can often be the first experience of the beautiful game for many children, and we welcome all boys and girls to come and join the Tormenta family! All of our Recreation teams are coached by volunteer coaches, who are dedicated and committed to ensuring your player has the best soccer experience possible every season! The Recreation program also provides advancement opportunities into our Academy programs for future seasons at our club!

Tormenta FC Recreation Program enables every player participating in the program to have fun, exercise, and develop life skills and a passion for the game of soccer, in a safe and organized playing environment. We welcome all players between the ages of 3-14 to join us this season across the various practice locations! You can register a full team of players or as an individual. Tormenta welcomes all players to participate in our soccer program! The Recreation program will run for 8 weeks. Each team will practice once a week, and games are scheduled on Saturdays throughout the season!

Registration includes the team uniform jersey for all participants. Parents are responsible for purchasing black shorts and socks for practice sessions and games for the player to wear during the season.

The Ibis Foundation graciously provides a grant to Tormenta FC Academy to provide 100 free recreation soccer registrations per season to families in need of assistance. If your child qualifies for free or reduced school lunch, he or she qualifies for free soccer! Email Mike Dixon with proof of enrollment to receive your free registration.

We would love to have you in this role! We will provide support with session plans every week, as well as in-game coaching tips for your teams! Coaching education classes will also be provided prior to the season starting. We ensure all coaches are prepared and ready for the season ahead!  Please consider being a volunteer coach when you register your child. Head coaches receive free registration for their player.

The highest compliment we can receive is the referral of your friends and family. As a small token of our appreciation, if you refer a friend or family member, you will receive a $5 gift card of your choice. There will be a “Referral” option drop-down menu when you are registering, so please list the name of the person who recommended you to sign up here.

Please confirm your team preference or friend participant requests when completing the registration form. We will assign team rosters with these in mind!
