Mariposa Youth Soccer League Schedule
Facts and Information:
Cost: $40-80 depending on if people need a ball and or new uniform. Registrations will be available online starting 8/28. You can attend the first practice on 8/28 and register after. See informational letter below:
Dear Parents, Players, Friends,
On behalf of the Mariposa FC Fire, I would like to cordially invite you to participate in another year of our program. This year, like all years, we seek to infuse our program with creative ideas and to produce a great community-based soccer club for all of you!
With that being said, we have a few minor changes to our program and I implore you to consider these and choose what you feel is best for you and your family.
We are splitting our program into two from U10 up. With that being said, you will have the choice of what works best for you. Please consider this closely, however, we do have open enrollment for both programs, so you can always maneuver later depending on how things feel.
U10 and Older:
* Basically the choice is yours—you can opt for our Development Program, or
you can opt for our Recreational Play program. All we ask is that if you select development that you understand it is about doing just that. There will be fun and there will be scrimmages at practice, but there also will be training which requires full effort. Again, as mentioned above, you have the ability to move your player depending on what fits best.
U9 and Younger:
*For players for U5-U9 and younger, we are offering one Grassroots Program (see below), no choice necessary, just show up! For U4 and under, we will offer some trainings for toddlers beginning in mid Sept. so stay tuned for that. Practices are on Mondays and Wednesdays beginning 8/28!

U10 and Older:
- U10 and Older Development Program: This is meant for players who love soccer, and would like to reach their potential given ALL the best resources we, as a club, have available. What this means is that we will commit to giving your child the VERY best development we can based on our methodology (and also what is consistent with the high school). Our aim in this program is to foster a love of soccer THROUGH our style and methodology that will PRODUCE in your player the best possible outcome. Basically, it’s for players who want to develop and compete at the highest levels they can and would like to be the best players they can be when they reach high school.
- U10 and Older Recreational Play Program: This program is designed for players who are at the U10 age or older and are not necessarily interested in training to improve their skills and reach their top potential with us. Instead, they are interested in free creative play and would like to participate in more of an unstructured free-play environment where they, like millions of kids all over the planet, play soccer after school with limited interruption by coaches. This program is designed for players who don’t necessarily know if they want to play competitively but would like to enjoy the game of soccer.

- U9 and Younger Grassroots Development Program: This is the singular program we offer for all our youngest players. It is based on a combination of MCHS High School Players who help instruct, along with parents and high school coaches. One of our core beliefs is to give the best possible experience to ALL the youngest players (and make it fun!). Many times young players will decide later on that they love soccer and want to play it in high school, but the first few years need to be about enjoyment and development.
