⚽ What Age Group Does My Child Play In?

Understanding Age Groups:

We use “U” (Under) age groups — for example, “6U” means players who are Under 6 years old this calendar year.

👉 It does NOT mean 6 and up — it means 5 and younger!

👉 Your child’s birth year determines their age group — not their age today.

👉 All ages below refer to the player’s age during this calendar year (2025).

Common Questions:

Q: My child is turning 4 — can they play?

A: Yes! If they were born in 2020 or 2021, they are eligible for 6U this year.

 

Q: It says “6U” — does that mean my child must be 6?

A: No. “6U” means Under 6 — players who are 5 or younger this calendar year.

Q: How do I know which group my child belongs in?

A: Just look at their birth year in the chart above — that’s their division.

  • Our 6U “Academy” (formerly called Jamboree) is designed for young players ages 3–5.
  • The focus is on fun, learning, and basic soccer skills in a supportive environment.
  • We welcome all players born in 2020 or 2021, even if they are just turning 4!
