Youth Summer Soccer - Summer 2026

The Summer Soccer Program, hosted by Shelton FC is focused on bringing families together through soccer. We are making some big changes this year to ensure we can have a successful program that starts on time and enables our kids to have a great experience at the soccer park.

The program is open to any child born between 8/1/2007-7/21/2022. Our goal is to keep costs as low as possible for this program, which means we rely on volunteers to run our programs. Volunteer roles can range from coaching to working a shift in the snack shack, or working a shift on park maintenance or projects.

As a thank-you for volunteering, Shelton FC will provide a $40.00 coupon toward your player's registration fees when you register as a 'volunteer' first.

What is Fall/Spring league soccer like?

Fall and spring season are a traditional local travel team competition environment. It is a recreational league, meaning that there are no tryout and that all participants will share playing time equitably. We have volunteer coaches who do a great job balancing competition and playing opportunity. Travel should be expected to Grays Harbor, Thurston, Lewis, and Mason county area teams. League play begins for kids U9 players and extends to high school players.

ht is Fall/Spring Jr. Soccer Program (U6 & U8 Divisions)

Jr. Soccer is Shelton FC’s local developmental program designed for young players ages 4–7, with separate U6 and U8 divisions. This recreational program helps kids build a strong foundation in soccer while preparing them to enter league play in future seasons. There are no tryouts — all participants are welcome and receive equal playing time in a fun, inclusive environment. Jr. Soccer follows the play-practice-play model, where kids develop individual skills through fun, soccer-based activities in each session. Parents serve as volunteer coaches and assistants, helping guide players through drills and small-sided games. Teams practice twice a week, and players participate in in-house competitions on weekday evenings, keeping games local and convenient for families. Whether your child is brand new to soccer or building on what they've learned, Jr. Soccer is a fun and supportive way to grow as a player!
