Under 10 Girls Intramural Program

   

U10 Girls Intramural Program Introduction

U10 Girls teams play "in and out of house" against other Hempfield Soccer Club teams and other Intramural teams within a close proximity.  The U10 intramural program of the Hempfield Soccer Club is based on the Official 8v8 U10 Program recommended by the USYSA (United States Youth Soccer Association).  The composition of teams may be revised after the fall season, depending on the number of players who sign up and ability of those players. Coaches are to provide the opportunity to players to play and learn a variety of positions.  Individual player development remains the focus of the program.  Instruction also includes some beginning tactics and team concepts.
