Registration Information

Eligible Players: 

FDSA Recreational Soccer is a level 3 program, open to boys and girls ages 4 through 15 in Fort Dodge and surrounding communities. No previous soccer skills are needed to participate.

Players that play in a level 2, or a level 1 league (FD Chaos and ISL State Leagues,) are not eligible for the FDSA Recreational program.

Divisions Birth Years
Boys U6 & Girls U6 2019 & 2020
Boys U8 & Girls U8 2017 & 2018
Boys U10 & Girls U10 2015 & 2016
Coed U12 2013 & 2014
Coed U15 2010, 2011 & 2012

 


Each age group will have a max participant number.  Once that maximum is reached, your player will be placed on a wait list.  Wait list participants can be accepted once a full team with a volunteer coach is set.

Sign up early to guarantee your registration. TEAMS WILL FILL UP!


U10 Division:

For the past few seasons we haven't had the numbers to support separate boys and girls divisions at the U10 level. With registrations increasing, we anticipate that we will have separate boys and girls U10 divisions this season. If we do not have enough players and volunteer coaches, we will have a coed division, to ensure everyone can play.


Volunteer Coaches Needed:
Previous experience not required!

FDSA relies on parents and community members to coach our teams. Please consider coaching a team this season!

Volunteer Coaches can receive 1 free player registration for the Fall 2024 season.  To be eligible, all Iowa Soccer training requirements must be completed prior to coaching season.  Reimbursement will occur at end of the Fall 2024 season.  Sign up as a volunteer coach during your child's registration process.


Game Jerseys

FDSA uses a two-jersey system. Each player will have one navy and one gray jersey. Each jersey costs $8 plus tax. 
New players: stop in to Decker Sports to pre-order your jersey. 
Returning players: Make sure your jersey from last season still fits.

Deadline to pre-order August 26th
