5v5 Summer Soccer

Hernando Parks and Recreation will again host their 5v5 Summer Soccer program made available to participants ages 9-14. I have been asked about having a program for players during the summer and after doing some research this type of small, sided program is offered in many other different places during the summer.

5V5 – Hernando and surrounding area players and parents looking for somewhere to get games, develop as a player, and play in a fun and enjoyable environment during the summer off season. This 5v5 summer soccer would be played at the Hernando Soccer Complex 900 Bella Vita Way Hernando, Mississippi and overseen by the Hernando Parks Department. Due to the small fields, it will force the players to make quicker decisions. There is no better way to improve your skills and have a blast with friends while playing soccer!!

Teams – This Summer League will be offered to teams and all registrations will need to be made as a team. There will not be any individual registrations. This will allow anybody to get their friends together and form a small-sided team. All teams will need to have an adult as their contact person. Teams will consist of 5-10 players. Each team will be responsible for supplying their own jerseys. Space is limited so register early.
