We start our official fall 2020 game day schedule on Saturday, September 12 with a set of games at the Tophat fields in Buckhead.
Game day notes:
- About game days: Almost a month has passed since our first game day. That’s a LONG time for kids this age. We ask that parents and their daughters spend 10 minutes together reviewing what happens on game days, along with understanding player and parent responsibilities and guidelines. Links: what to expect on game day #1 / general game day procedures and guidelines
- No jewelry! We will likely have a real referee for our games. “No jewelry” is one of soccer’s rules. It’s a rule, not a suggestion. Link: jewelry rule
- Games are in Buckhead: Games are scheduled at the Tophat Buckhead fields, not at Metro North Park or Quest Park.
- Hot weather / hydration: We’re likely to have hot weather, so it’s time for a reminder about hydration. Tip: good hydration starts before Saturday morning!
- Uniforms: Check the roster tables below for uniform colors. Most of our teams will wear blue, but one team will wear yellow.
- Uniform not yet delivered? If your daughter is on a team wearing blue, she should wear practice gear with a navy blue or dark shirt. If she’s on a team wearing yellow, she should wear practice gear with a yellow or white shirt.
- Bring pink practice vests: All girls should bring their pink practice vests.
- No jewelry! This is worth a 2nd reminder, because it can prevent spirit-crushing boo-hoo-hoo moments. Link: jewelry rule
- Weekly quiz: We post a quiz each week below the team assignments. Scroll past the roster table for quiz details.
- Warm-up captains: Girls whose names are in bold print with a (C) indicator are warm-up captains. They are responsible for gathering their teammates and helping the coaches start pre-game warm-up. Link: warm-up ideas

Weekly quiz – dribbling moves:
Girls can win a treat after our Wednesday or Thursday practice if they can demonstrate at least two dribbling turns, and also answer this question: “What are the three parts of a dribbling move?”
