Welcome to the Stowe Soccer Club

Spring Soccer 2023

Spring Registration is OPEN.

Stowe Soccer’s aim is to develop players’ skills and appreciation for the game of soccer all while having fun.

The spring season is a competitive program playing in the Vermont Soccer Association league. We play against competitive teams and travel up to 90 minutes to games for at least one game a week. This program is geared towards players looking to challenge themselves against other experienced players. Please note that Spring Soccer is based on age, not grade. The Vermont Soccer League age groups are based on birth year as shown below:

  • U8 - 2015/2016

  • U10 – 2013/2014

  • U12 – 2011/2012

Questions:

Please remember that the Stowe Soccer Club board members are 100% volunteer and the deadlines for Spring Soccer are set by the VSA and not the board. Please try as hard as you can to respect the deadlines and requirements for soccer.

Practice Schedule

Practice times will be set by each coach and will be communicated to you. Coaches will reach out to you once a schedule has been set. Games are scheduled on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Practices and home games are at the Polo Fields on West Hill Road.

Game Schedules

Schedules will be posted in late April on http://www.vermontsoccer.org/schedules/


Important Safety Notes

All players are required to wear cleats and shin guards and should bring a soccer ball and a water bottle to every practice and game. Players should have a small, healthy snack before the start of practice.

  • Coaches are not responsible to ensure your child makes it to practice. Please ensure they have adult supervision until practice begins.

  • The Polo fields have no shelter. Vermont weather is often unpredictable, appropriate clothing should be worn to all practices and if thunderstorms are threatening, parents should be standing by or have an adult ready to immediately retrieve their children.

  • Vermont Soccer League rules do not allow players to wear jewelry of any kind.


Additional Info

  • Your coaches will have team specific information and will be reaching out to registered players, as well as being available at practices.

  • No players will be allowed to play in an older age group. Rare exceptions will require a vote of the board.

  • The Polo fields have no shelter. Spring weather appropriate clothing should be worn and if thunderstorms are threatening, parents should be standing by to immediately retrieve their children.


Vermont Youth Soccer Association

VSA provides liability insurance to cover all players, coaches and organizers from claims or lawsuits arising from the soccer program or related activities. Medical insurance is also provided for injuries or accidents sustained by participants. The liability and medical insurance benefits provide excess secondary coverage to any primary coverage. In the absence of any primary coverage the VSA insurance coverage will provide primary benefits. As with any insurance there are certain limitations and exclusions, but the coverage is well worth the premium VSA charges the club.
