NOTE: We have had a heavy lean towards male-identifying players & are hence reserving most remaining spots for female players. As such, there is a good chance you may be placed on our waitlist, with us arranging payment from you later. If you find yourself in this situation, please message halifaxplays.soccer@gmail.com & we'll walk through the next steps/ advise if there's space.

The following registration is for Halifax PLAYS Rec Soccer (Fall 2022)!

The SPIRIT: While our rec soccer program is open to any & all who are interested, the spirit will be very much recreational in nature. More advanced players may join but are expected to pass & include all in the game. This is intended as a low-key, fun-first option where all skill levels can enjoy!

FORMAT: Games will be 7 vs. 7 by default (unless teams chose to do differently), with nine players on each roster. The four teams rotate games against each other. We'll also play with smaller nets and no goalies, with a focus on passing plays & getting everyone involved. There might be one big game with 11v11 once in a while for a change if everyone agrees.

LOCATIONS: Sept 14 to Sept 28 - South Commons Soccer Field (1855 Trollope St, Halifax)
Oct 5th to Oct 31st - Merv Sullivan Park (3791 Novalea Drive, Halifax)

DATES/ TIMES: Sept 14th - Sept 28th - Wednesday evenings @ 6:30-8:00 PM

Oct 5th to Oct 31st - Monday AND Wednesday evenings @ 7:00 - 8:30 PM

Two games running concurrently (four teams). Each team plays 4 x 22.5-minute quarters with water breaks between them. Dates will be from

COST: $30 for the season

WHO CAN PLAY?: Players of all ages (19+), skill levels & genders! This league is designed more towards beginner to average players, but the intended spirit is very much fun-first & recreational. We emphasize passing & strive to include everyone (especially beginners).

HOW TEAMS WORK: We create them, with an emphasis on mixing things up & ensuring there is decent parity in skill levels. That said, players will have the option to name two friends they want to play with, although efforts will be made to create balanced teams. If at any point - should anyone feel tired, thirsty, or uneasy - please put your health first and sit out and/or let an organizer know.
