What if my child has never played soccer before?

You have come to the right place.  We want to be a league where everyone can play, regardless of their skill level or specific needs.  We form our teams to ensure a balance between experience and age, so everyone has the opportunity to learn the game.

How will I know my child is registered?

If you register on-line you will have an option to print a receipt for your registration. If you register in person, you will be given a receipt (if you paid by cash) after you have correctly and completely gone through the registration process. This will be your proof. Do not lose it!! If you paid by check, your cancelled check from your bank is your proof.

When can I expect to hear from my coach?

The coaches will not get their rosters with your names and phone numbers until the wee before practice. Coaches anticipate will contact you with the name practice day and time.

Very simple. Volunteer to coach. You'll find you have as much fun as the kids. North Side Soccer League holds coaches clinics each season, where you can learn all you need. E-mail at webmaster@northsidesoccer.com and let us know you are interested.

How are teams formed?

Teams are formed to be as fair and to promote the objective of fun for all the players.  We use a system that takes into account practice night preference, age of player, number of seasons played and skill level.  We also take parent requests to move their children up into a higher skill/age bracket if they are not being challenged.

Can I pick my child's team or coach?

No.  All "teams" are created to be fair and equal and each child is assigned based on the criteria listed above. We will do our best to place siblings on the same teams and allow player transfers due to carpool or convenience issues. We also consider your input in moving children up a soccer level to ensure they will have fun and be challenged (just e-mail us or mark your preference in the comments in registration). We do not honor requests for a certain coach as allowing some teams to remain intact this way can cause those teams to be stronger than others. Our teams are intended to be FUN for everyone. If your interested in a competitive soccer league for your child, we can recommend other leagues that offer travel and competitive soccer.

What about Practices?

We practice at Sahm Park on either Tuesday or Thursday nights around 6:00 or 6:30 pm.  We strive to provide you with your designated practice preference night.   Coaches will gather contact you for specific date and time the week before practice.  Please be sure to discuss any special needs you may have.

What equipment does my child need?

North Side League provides each player with a jersey, shorts and a pair of socks. You will need to provide:

- a ball of the appropriate size for your child's age group (size 3 for U6/U8 and size 4 for U10/U12).
- shin guards; No one can play at practice or a game without shin guards.
- a water bottle for games and practice.

- Soccer cleats are not required but highly recommended (much safer on wet or muddy fields). You can find these items at most sporting goods and discount stores.   We typically have discount coupons available from our sponsors at Dick's Sporting Goods to save money on some of these items.

 What can I do to help?

Volunteer your time. Our league is completely volunteer run.  Become a coach, sign up to be a team parent, assist with concession stand duties for a game, become a board member, help with striping or setting up the fields or with the season picnic e-mail us at webmaster@northsidesoccer.com or call (317) 767-1274 and find out what needs to be done. It takes a lot of work to keep the club going and we welcome a fresh perspective and help in any way.
