COMMUNITY-BASED TEAMS

Communities (e.g. Cloverdale, Bainbridge, Reelsville, Coatesville, etc.) who can fill teams (and provide coaches) for certain age groups are welcome to apply to have 'local squads' which MAY practice at facilities in their own communities, though all games would still be played on Saturday mornings at Big Walnut Sports Park. Contact Recreational League Coordinator Roger Dortch-Doan (rdortch@depauw.edu, 765-720-3930) if you are interested in forming such community-based teams in future seasons. We try to find ways to save parents time and fuel and build local traditions.
REC+/TRAVEL SOCCER
