Recreational Soccer at IYSA

Indialantic offers teams at each age based on a single calendar year. Our in-house teams of the same age play against each other.

Teams from U9-U16 play in our local recreational league where teams are grouped by combining two consecutive birth years together into a single age group. Our U9 and U11 teams will play in the U10 and U12 age groups respectively.

Once registration closes, teams are divided equitably by age and player requests. Requests to "play up" in an older age group are permitted provided there is roster space, and the "play up" request does not violate Florida Youth Soccer Association rules.

Our U5 and U6 teams are coed. At U7 and U8 some coaches offer girls teams, but this is not guaranteed every season.

For U9-U12 teams, girls can choose to play in either a coed team, or an all-girls team. Availability depends on the number of players registered.

For U14 and older, teams are coed. The local league does not always offer girls divisions from U14.

During registration you can indicate if your player would prefer to play in a Coed or Girls team.

Future Force is our introduction to sport for U3 and U4 players.

We introduce the concepts of athletic movement and team sports using soccer.

Recreational coaches at Indialantic are volunteers.

Recreational coaching at Indialantic is one of our pathways to coaching competitive soccer.

While all of our recreational coaches are volunteers, many are former high level players from the collegiate, professional or international level.

All recreational soccer coaches are required to complete a mandatory background check, as well as training regarding player safety  (SafeSport) and concussion awareness (Heads Up).

All U5 to U8 players have a weekly skills clinic for their age group, run by club trainers on Wednesday 5:30-6:30pm.

These clinics are based on FIFA, UEFA and US Youth Soccer standards for player development.

Players are divided in groups and each group moves from one station to another.

Clinics focus on a set for core competencies designed to allow players to progress successfully to the next level.

U5 and U6 Core Competencies

• Basic movement
• Tick-tocks
• Toe touches
• Inside/Outside

U7 and U8 Core Competencies

• Basic movement
• Sole rolls
• Inside foot passing
• Inside foot receiving
