• After players have registered, the Skyline staff will build out all of our teams. Here is some insight into the process:
• Returning players have first priority to the team they were on previously but they must register prior to the registration deadline.
• From there, we will begin putting new players on rosters, according to player’s registration date and registration requests to teams that have space remaining.
• If there are enough new players, Skyline will look to build new teams.
• Skyline will work with newly formed teams to confirm a volunteer coach and practice locations/times/days.
• When you register be sure to fill out the request fields so we can find a team that best fits you! Always remember that we do offer refunds if we are unable to find a team that fits your needs.

• Rec Plus players will participate in a weekly Skills session with paid, higher level coaches and DOC’s.  This is for those rec players who wish to have more development and the goal of playing competitive one day.
• Rec Plus fees are different as the commitment is for the entire year, both the fall and spring seasons.
• Teams are still formed by coach and friend requests, but the team agrees to practicing more and attending Skills.

• Rec and Rec Plus teams have the option of participating in either the new Interleague Program with Littleton United or the CSA Front Range League.
• Playing in the Interleague will mean that your home games are at a Skyline field and your away games are at a United field.  Playing in the CSA Front Range League will mean that your home games are at Kennedy Soccer complex and your away games could be anywhere in the greater Denver Metro area and could mean travel north to Fort Collins or and south to Pueblo or Colorado Springs.
• Travel time could be very different for your season based on which league you choose.

• The Elite Program is the pre-competitive program designed to better prepare 9U/10U players for the Competitive Program at 11U.
• Elite teams participate in Colorado Soccer Association (CSA) Intermediate Leagues. Teams play seven versus seven (7v7) format with goalkeepers for 8 games per season.  All home games will be played at Kennedy Soccer Complex.
• Team will practice two times per week with optional (but highly recommended) Age Group Training (AGT) on Fridays at Kennedy Soccer Complex.
• Games are played in a home/away format with opponents. Some travel outside of Denver and surrounding areas may be required for games. Games are refereed by certified referees at this age group.
• The program is a one year commitment and runs from August – May.

Normally Elite teams are formed through attendance at the ID Camp as well as player assessments throughout the 8U year ensuring all players are ready to participate in the Elite Program.

Teams that will play in the Fall 2020/Spring 2021 season will be formed differently from past season due to COVID-19 and required protocols.  The following will be used fro assessment and team formation.

Skyline understands that each player develops differently. These assessments are based on what the player is showcasing at that point in time and not an assessment for their entire soccer career.
