Where is my game schedule?

We use a software for our game schedules that has a FREE ap for our parents.  Once you download the ap, it will show you your entire games schedule.  It also shows you practice times.  And sends you game reminders, as well as practice reminders.  Our parents love this ap.  It makes evertything super easy!

Hope Soccer uses Playerspace app for game scheduling.

How much is it?

For new players, the total is $187.  This includes $144 for the 8 week season plus $43 for the unitorm – Total is $187.

For returning players, it is $144.  We are one of few organizations that do NOT require you to purchase a new uniform every season.  Instead you can wear your uniform for as long as it fits.

How long is the season?

Each season is 8 weeks long.  You get 8 weeks of practice and 7 weekends of games. 

Because of the tournament and possible double headers during the regular season, each team plays atleast 7 games, but most teams play more than 7 games per season. 

Each season, we take a break.  For the Spring, we take 2 weeks off around Easter and Spring Break.  For the Fall, we take a 2 week break towards the end of October.  We finish each season before “Memorial Day” (Spring) and “Thanksgiving” (Fall) respectively.

What is "Hope Skills Clinics"?

Hope Skills Clinics are available to your child on the day they don’t practice. They are designed to let your child get more touches on the ball when they don’t have practice.  Hope coaches run drills and scrimmage.  You can find out more about it here, and sign up as well.  Cost is $5 per session.  This is only for players who are registered to play at Hope for the season.

Your Coach

We’re different!  Hope Soccer Coaches are “homegrown”.  This means they grew up playing for our founder, Coach Nick.  All of our Coaches are skilled soccer players capable of teaching the beautiful game correctly at all age levels.

Practice Strategy

Our youth soccer team for Ages 5 to 7 will focus on teaching the basics like the appropriate way to pass using the inside of our foot.

We will focus on field awareness.   Our objective is to teach our young players how to use the space on the field.

Having more space gives players more time to receive the ball, control it, and make a pass.

SPACE = TIME = QUALITY.

Having the time to receive the ball, control it, and make a pass results in a better quality when doing these things.

We aim to provide a soccer strategic learning experience through age appropriate games/drills the kids will have fun playing.

At each practice, we share our faith with players wishing to hear. 

Please remember to wear your soccer gear including cleats, and shin guards.  Please bring a water bottle and hand sanitizer.
