Nahant Youth Soccer FAQ

What do I need for practice?
You need a size 3 ball, shin guards, cleats, and a drink.

Do I register and pay for spring soccer if I played in the fall?
YES . You pay separately for each season of soccer.

My child is playing for the first time in the spring and would like to play again in the fall. Do I have to re-register?
Yes.

What is the “U” in the age groupings?
The “U” stands for “under,” as in “under the specified age.” Thus, the U7-8 boys/girls league is open to boys and girls under the age of 7, and not older than 8.

Is soccer practice ever cancelled due to bad weather?
Yes. Though we make every effort to hold practices as scheduled, sometimes we must cancel sessions due to weather. Cancellations will be posted to the website as soon as they are known.

We registered but can’t make the rest of the season. Can we get a refund?
We regret that we are unable to give refunds.

Can I come to practice? Can I stay? Do I have to stay?
Parents, family members and friends are always welcome at practice. The kids love to show off and are always proud to have you watch them. On the other hand, we recognize that sometimes it’s not always possible or practical for you to attend every session. You can leave your child at practice and return to pick him or her up at the end of practice.

Do you start on time?
Yes. Please arrive 15 minutes before clinic starts to give your child a chance to acclimate, say hi to friends, and get ready. Kids usually find it stressful to be late to soccer, and it’s something they look forward to every week.

Do you know anything about soccer summer camps?
In fact, we do. See our links page for more information.

Is my kid going to get as filthy as the kid on this page?
Probably. Good luck with that.
