FALL 2024
Most Sunnyvale Soccer Association teams are playing in the Forney Recreational Soccer League for the Fall of 2024. These teams will be formed using buddy matches for U6 and younger age groups and a blind draft for U7 and older age groups. The goal of player placement is to allow as many kids as possible to play soccer, while also setting teams up for success by filling the rosters.
For the Forney League there are two steps:
Step 1. Purchase the Forney Sports Pass
Step 2. Register in the GotSport system
Both links are available on the Forney Soccer Association website: https://www.forneysoccer.org/league-registration
Please make sure to select the SUNNYVALE PLAYER registration link
All registrations of kids either living in Sunnyvale or attending Sunnyvale ISD schools will be sent to the Sunnyvale Soccer Association.
Teams will be formed based on appropriate North Texas Soccer Association guidelines
For U6 and younger, this will be random, although buddy matches are allowed (requests for players to be on the same team as another player).
For U7 and older, returning players (from the past calendar year) will be assigned to their previous team, and new players will be randomly assigned based on order of sign-up and available spaces.
For players living outside of Sunnyvale city limits and not attending Sunnyvale ISD schools, the board may reach out to determine if placement on a Sunnyvale team is appropriate (e.g., the player lives just outside of Sunnyvale boundaries, and significantly closer to Sunnyvale than to Forney).
If your child has played soccer for multiple seasons, and is ready for a more competitive option, there are several Sunnyvale Teams and Players at local academies and clubs. There are also multiple Sunnyvale soccer families who have worked with private trainers.
While the Sunnyvale Soccer Association does not host its own academy or club teams, we would be happy to connect you to other parents, players, or families in Sunnyvale with similar aged children for recommendations on next steps and trainer or club contact information. Please email us at raiderssoccersunnyvale@gmail.com, include your child(ren)s ages and genders, a brief description of their experience level, and write 'Interested in Competitive' in the subject line.
