Our EPYSA Dragons Fall Recreational Soccer Program is designed for children ages 3 and up, with games played on Saturdays. With the added number of games this Fall, we may have games on Sunday or during the week, if needed, due to weather and time constraints. Teams will play in a fun, learning-focused environment that helps players develop skills, teamwork, and a love for the beautiful game of soccer.

The program will begin on September 12, 2026, and will run for 8 weeks of regular season play plus 1 weekend of finals, for a total of 9 weeks. NEW THIS YEAR, ADDED 2 WEEKS OF PLAY!
