Overview
The Hamilton Township Youth Athletics Soccer Program is designed to teach players the fundamentals of soccer while having fun. Every player will have a chance to play every position throughout the season. Soccer is a game that can last a lifetime providing years of fun and fitness. We are always looking for parents/adult volunteers to get involved in our soccer program, if you are interested in coaching or volunteering please let us know.
Divisions
Players will be assigned to age groups based upon age at the start of games for the season.
* Age groups are subject to be combined, split or changed based on the number of participants.
Please note: All players must be potty-trained and no longer in diapers or pull-ups. U6 Players must be at least 4 1/2 years of age.
Coaching Opportunities

between 6pm and 7pm, Saturday game start times from 10am, and Sunday game start times from 1pm. U6 and U8 games are held at the Hamilton Township Park; U10 and U13 games will be held throughout central Ohio as we are partnering with another league this season for these divisions.
When and Where are Practices?
Practice times are determined by each team's head coach. All practices are held at the Hamilton Township Park. Prior to the start of games, teams will practice two times per week for 45-60 minutes, with longer practices for older teams. Once games begin, teams can practice no more than once per week.
Game Cancellations
Games are canceled for lightning and/or flooded fields. Rain, sleet, wind and snow do not stop soccer. Dress appropriately. Games are not canceled by coaches, it is an HTYA Board decision 30 minutes prior. Games that have played 2 full quarters will not be rescheduled. The final score stands. Canceling practices is up to each coach, but may be canceled by the HTYA Board should there be lightning and/or flooded fields.
