Registration for the Vail Recreation District's (VRD) fall youth soccer program is under way until Aug. 20. Age groups range from four to 11, effective July 31, 2010, and teams are coordinated geographically via residence and where players attend school. The youth soccer program's groups are as follows (practice schedules are subject to change):
• Micro Soccer, for ages four to five, will practice from 9 to 10 a.m. on Saturdays from Sept. 11 to Oct. 23 at the new Battle Mountain High School field in Edwards. The Micro Soccer program will be operated by Battle Mountain High School and taught by high school athletes. There is no session Oct. 2. Cost is $50 and includes a T-shirt. Registration is available by clicking here.

• U8 Soccer, for ages six to seven, will practice Tuesdays and Thursdays from Vail to Avon with Saturday games from Sept. 7 to Oct. 23. Practice times to be determined. Cost is $50 and includes a uniform.

• U10 Soccer, for ages eight to nine, will practice Mondays and Wednesdays with Saturday games from Sept. 8 to Oct. 23 on various fields from Vail to Avon. Practice times to be determined. Cost is $55 and includes a uniform.

• U12 Soccer, for ages 10 to 11, will practice on Mondays and Wednesdays with Saturday games from Sept. 8 to Oct. 23 on various fields from Vail to Avon. Practice times to be determined. Cost is $55 and includes a uniform.

This is the fourth season for the VRD's smaller-sided youth soccer league, which allows U8 teams to play four versus four with no goal keepers, while U10 teams will play six versus six with goal keepers. The smaller team play allows participants to play more and gain better knowledge and skills of the sport.

Additionally, the VRD is seeking volunteer coaches and referees. Fees are waived for children whose parents volunteer.

The fall youth soccer program is sponsored by the Vail Daily, Plum TV, Vail Sports Medicine Physical Therapy and American National Bank.

Registration is available by clicking here or by calling 970-479-2280.
