2024/2025 Seasonal Fees: $255.00 (plus 3.25% + $1.00 processing fee)
Western Union Elementary Practice & Game Fields
New Town Elementary Game & Practice Fields
The Club no longer includes Referee Fees as part of registration due to "Cash on Field" requirement.
Final team size dictates the final Fee per Player the Team Managers will collect from player families. We've approximated the fees per player below:
Fall UCYS Tournament is mandatory and the registration fee is included with the Club's UCYS Dues
Spring WCWAA Queen City Classic is an optional, team paid, tournament.
Starting with the Fall 2024 Season, due to the costs and logistics associated with uniform purchases each season, the decision has been made by the Board of Directors to allow players who return for the Spring season to re-use the FULL uniform from the Fall season.
Anyone who plays on a full or half-year Academy or Classic travel team, and therefore has been carded by NCYSA for any duration of the school year, is not eligible to play on a Union County Youth Soccer REC Team.
We plan to register no more than 24 players to this age group. This is a CO-ED Division per UCYS, and we hope to form two(2) teams with an equal distribution of male & female players.
This is the hardest age group to roster as not all clubs receive equal number of male and female registrants. Some clubs only roster male players due to a lack of female registrants. We want to make this clear upfront: We will likely play against all male or mostly all male teams. Our Club follows the CO-ED rule for the division.
While there are two options below for U15/U16 Boys and Girls, for Training Days & Times, final registration numbers for this age group will dictate how we roster a mix of boys & girls onto teams, the final training schedule(s), and number of teams.
We have set aside four(4) training days and two(2) training times to allow for flexibility in creating teams.
Once we have the team(s) set, and volunteer coach(es) recruited, we will allow the coach(es) to select days and times with the team(s). This will work completely different from the younger age groups when it comes to building the teams.
ALL Parents are asked to volunteer to coach via the seasonal registration. This is a must to form teams. There will be a formal WAA Coach & Volunteer Application to be completed after completing this registration for your player.
ALL Returning or previously identified REC U8-U16 Volunteer Head Coaches who volunteer for this season, will receive their players specific day & a time slot for training.
Parent Volunteer Head Coaches will receive the following incentives for coaching:

New for the Fall 2024 Season, we introduce the role of Team Parent/Team Manager. This volunteer role is specifically to assist the Head Coach with Referee Fees collection and coordination of extra needs for the team. This is necessary role to collection of "Cash on Field" payments for UCYS provided referees.
This is a typical role for all WXW Soccer Club Academy & Classic competitive soccer teams and will now be utilized for our Recreational REC U8-U16 Soccer program as well. We are seeking parent volunteers for this role via this registration, but if there is no one to represent a given team, the parents of that team will be called upon for a volunteer. All 30+ teams now require this volunteer just like a Head Coach. The Team Manager will be responsible to collect the full amount for the season, manage the funds weekly or provide all funds to the Head Coach.
Outside of the Ref Fees, the Team Manager will assist the coach in coordination of anything the team Head Coach may need or want like snacks, drinks, water, pop-up canopies (family provided or WXW provided where applicable), or team events outside of the games. Team Parent/Team Manager will also help coordinate Uniform collection & distribution. They will assist with WCWAA Queen City Tournament funds (Spring Only) should your team choose to participate. Basically, as the Team Parent/Team Manager, we are looking for you to assist your Head Coach. As this is an official WAA volunteer position, this role will be required to complete the standard WAA Coach & Volunteer Application with background check & SafeSport Training.
Our REC U8-16 Age Group competes as part of Union County Youth Soccer.
