Youth Indoor Soccer Leagues


Our youth indoor recreational soccer leagues are well-organized and fun for kids ages 4 to 17. If you have never experienced indoor soccer before, get ready for a fast paced game on a smaller field than outdoors with more chances to touch the ball and score! Our youth soccer program is designed for all types of players, from beginners who have never played soccer before and want to learn the game, to more experienced players who have played in a youth soccer league before.


Teams: All youth league teams are recreational and are formed by our staff. Teams will be formed after registration closes. We do not accept team or coach requests and do not allow full or partial teams to be brought to play together. All players will be placed on teams to even out teams as fairly as possible.

Friend / Buddy Requests: We guarantee one (1) friend/buddy request. You may request one (1) friend/buddy for your player to play with on the same team. Your friend request must be reciprocated by your friend. This means that the player that you request must also request your player. We can only guarantee friend requests if they are reciprocated. Please verify that the player you have friend requested has also requested your player. If they request anyone else then your friend request will not be honored. If you do not follow the friend request policy then you will not be guaranteed to be placed on the same team. If you register online, do not list more than one friend. If more than one friend is requested, your request will not be honored.

Coaching: All coaches are volunteers. If you would like to coach please reach out to us as soon as possible. Not all teams will start with an assigned coach. Should your player be placed on a team without a coach, they will still play. A staff member will fill in until a coach signs up. All head coaches will receive a 50% discount refunded to them at the end of the season. If there are more volunteer coaches than teams, then we will randomly choose coaches and assign them to their respective team.

Games and Game Days: Games are held between 8 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and will be played on either Saturday or Sunday. When necessary, games may be scheduled on weekday evenings. All players must check in at the front desk prior to their games and will get a wristband. Players will not be allowed to play if they do not check in. No unbagged balls will be permitted in the facility. This goes for players and coaches alike. Spectators are only allowed on bleachers or in designated viewing areas. Children must be supervised at all times.

Uniforms: All players will receive two (2) shirts. Dark shirts will be worn on games that are assigned as the home team. Light shirts will be worn on days your team is assigned as away. Indoor turf or tennis shoes only. NO CLEATS or CROCS. Shin guards are required at all times and must be covered by socks. Pants are only permitted to be worn by the goalie. Field players must wear shorts. Any color bottoms or socks may be worn. All jewelry must be removed prior to the start of the game. Bows without metal clips may be worn.

Practice: Practice is not included with registration fees. Due to limited field space it is impossible to provide practice time for every single team. A team may choose to have practice at our facility or somewhere else at the coach’s discretion. We (Vacaville Indoor Sports) are not involved in this process. Any decisions made are the responsibility of the coach. We offer field rentals on a first come first serve basis based on availability. Should coaches choose to rent space in our facility for practice, additional fees may apply.

Refunds: Refund requests made prior to the close of registration will be accepted and issued in full. We will not issue refunds once registration closes. Refunds will not be given to late registration participants.

Terms and Conditions: By continuing with registration you agree to these policies.
