Fall 2023 Rec Info



Limited space available for some age groups (see list below). Others are full, sorry!
Note that we will not have Monday bonus skills sessions for Rec this fall based on feedback and field/coach availability.
The MTSC Rec (Recreation) Program gives boys and girls between the ages of 3 and 12 the opportunity to play this great game outside the school environment. The focus of the program are the FUNdamentals, with the emphasis on the Fun. Players are taught basic soccer skills from our club's professional, licensed trainers. These skills include: ball mastery, passing, dribbling and shooting technique along with ingame basics.
The schedule and fees for Rec sessions vary with age as follows:
PreK and K
| Sat 1 hour OR Tues 1 hour
| $150 for 1 $250 for both
|
1st and 2nd
| Sat 1 hour + Thurs 1 hour
| $ 225
|
A second child participating in the program receives a $ 50 discount; a 3rd (or more) receives a $ 150 discount. The cancellation fee is $25. There are no refunds after the first week of the program. We do not prorate for late registrations. Registration closes after the second week of the program.
When you log in to register, you'll be able to select your child's current grade, or 1 grade higher. This allows your child to play with the next older group if you wish (for example, a 2nd grader playing with 3rd graders to get the additional weekday sessions).
All players should wear cleats (sneakers are OK for Pre-K and K), shin guards underneath soccer socks, and appropriate soccer clothing. NO jewelry or watches permitted for safety reasons (Please take them off before getting on the fields, including earrings). Bring water.
During the first week we will be giving out T-shirts to Pre-K and K players, and shirts / shorts / practice balls for Grade 1-6 players, which should be brought to practices.
9 weeks of sessions are scheduled, but as we cannot schedule make-up sessions, weather or field conditions may reduce the actual number of sessions held (we'll send an email and update the Field Status section of the Home page by 3pm weekdays and 8am Saturdays).
SATURDAY sessions are at the Mill Pond Soccer Complex (11 Mill Pond Rd, Belle Mead NJ 08502), field #3 (at the end of the parking lot... look for the welcome tent).
WEEKDAY sessions are at Lubas Field (Route 601 Belle Mead, near the Carrier Clinic)
