Recreational Program

At Byron Soccer Club we are proud to offer soccer for all ages and abilities. Our recreational programs have offerings for youth players between the ages of 3 to 18 years old and also an Adult Over 30's program, serving as a great introduction to soccer for new players or for players to continue their journey within the sport.

Our Youth Recreational Program provides an exciting and fun experience in a low-pressure environment for kids so they can learn the game and develop a passion for soccer and athletics for many years to come.  We strongly believe that youth sports play an important role in a child’s life. Children who participate in youth sports develop both physical and social skills, including self-confidence, discipline, focus, friendship, and motivation – lessons essential in the life of a student-athlete. Regular physical activity during practices and games also carries a range of health benefits for young players.

We align our Recreational program with Ontario Soccer’s Long-Term Player Development (LTPD) program. LTPD is about putting the player first and offering age-appropriate opportunities for kids to enjoy the game of soccer.

Our U4-U6 players will be a part of our internal Active Start Program.  The program is once per week on Saturday mornings.

Our U7 players will train and play in our internal house league.  They will have one day of training/development and one game day per week.

U8-U17 players will be entered in the Elgin Middlesex Tier 3 league.  This is a recreational league-level program that allows players from different clubs to practice and play in a fun, low-pressure environment.  Training will be in Byron at either the Byron Optimist Sports Complex or Springbank Park.  Games will be at either Byron, Springbank, or local area fields in the greater London area.  

Volunteer coaches receive training, pre-planned practice sessions, and a full  rebate on their player's registration fee for the team they coach.
