DISC Recreational Adult Pickup Soccer

Ladies’, Men’s, Coed…. and more to follow

This new program is aimed at shift workers, players too busy to commit to season long programs and players who simply want an additional game each week. In the introductory period, as we build the base of players, men’s and ladies games will be organized. As the group grows and we get feedback on players needs, we will be able to offer more groups such as co-ed, specific age groups and even youth games. DISC is targeting a fee of $5 per game in the Summer (May – Sep) and $10 in the Fall and Winter (Oct – Apr).

Games will be restricted to a maximum number of players with the aim to have 20 players at each game – 7 on the field at any time and 3 substitutes for each team. Players are required to bring both red and white shirts to each game so that the teams can be divided on the day. Games will typically be a straight 50 minutes with ten minutes allowed for warm up and field changing. Unless a player specifically wishes to play in goal, all players are expected to take a share as keeper. Players may wear either flat soled shoes or moulded cleats. Shinguards are mandatory.

To manage the program efficiently, DISC is using an online event manager called Meetup.com. Durham Pickup Soccer is a group on this site.  If you wish to register for games, receive notifications about upcoming games or give feedback, suggest ideas etc this can all be done on this website.
