Every available girl will play each game day. We play multiple games each game day, with each girl usually playing one game. Link: game day procedures and guidelines
Sundays
We have four three Sunday events: an informal afternoon spring break scrimmage on April 9, afternoon games on April 16 and May 14 (Mother’s Day special), and a morning (and possibly afternoon) game on May 21 as part of a season-ending tournament.
April 16 game moved to April 15:
Our original schedule had us playing on Easter Sunday, April 16. This game has been rescheduled to Saturday, April 15.
Game formats
- We have a mix of 4v4, 5v5 and 7v7 games during the spring season. We’ll play with goalkeepers in the 5v5 and 7v7 games. The offside rule will likely apply in the 7v7 games.
Rosters
- We post game day rosters each Monday night before the upcoming weekend games. You can click the link in the Date column to see that date’s rosters and schedules.
- We’ll combine girls from both Metro North Park and United Quest Park on game days.
- Coaches will handle roster assignments; we may not be able to honor individual roster / game time requests. Link: schedule requests
DH players
We will likely have game days when we’ll need some players to play twice, or what we call “DH” (double-header) duty. Link: double-header play
Schedule conflicts
Please let us know as early as possible about any game day schedule conflicts. (E-mail to Ward is the preferred method.) We can work around most conflicts as long as we know about them by the weekend ahead of the game day.
Tournaments
We won’t play any 2-day pre-season tournaments. Pending field availability and weather, we may have an informal intra-Academy 1-day tournament in late February.
We plan to play in the NTH Adidas Cup the weekend of May 20-21, 2017. This is a big tournament hosting hundreds of teams from local and other areas, ages U8 up through U19, with each team playing 3-4 games over the weekend. This will be our final event of the spring season.
Depending on the number of U8 entrants, we may roster all of our girls, or only the girls with 2009 birth years. (We’ve found that it’s rare for Junior Academy or pre-Academy programs at other clubs to include girls with 2010 birth years.) Link: NTH Adidas Cup information
