House Soccer Program – Spring 2025
- Firm Registration Deadline: May 1st. Players will be placed on a wait list after this date. Because teams need to be formed and schedules finalized, there will be no exceptions to this policy. Some divisions can fill up before the deadline so don’t delay in registering.
- Schedule. Games will be played on Saturdays and practice sessions held on Tuesday’s or Wednesday’s. Games and practices will be held at either the Orchard Park Soccer Complex at 6909 Milestrip Road in Orchard Park or the Baker Road School fields at 3340 Baker Road.
- New Coaching Benefit. Any parent who volunteers and is selected to be the Head Coach for their child’s team will receive a full refund of the registration fee. Click here to read the terms and conditions in order to receive the full refund.

- Weather Policy. All of our programs are conducted rain or shine. In the event that there is severe weather that includes thunder, lightning, torrential rain, and/or unplayable field conditions we will notify all players and coaches via email. In most cases we try to make a final decision no later than one hour prior to the start of the game or practice. Please check your email in these cases before your head to the field. These conditions are not always easy to predict so, if we receive these conditions at the field during a game or practice we will evacuate the fields for 30 minutes. If conditions improve, we will continue play. If conditions do not improve, we will cancel for the evening. We will do our best to reschedule any missed activity, but in most cases, we do not have the ability to reschedule the lost activity.
TEAM ROSTERS Due to the high amount of requests we receive for players to be on the same team and in an effort to make teams as even as possible, players may not request to be on the same team as another player or particular coach. As everyone plays in one common location, requests to play with friends/cousins or for carpooling reasons cannot be honored.
Any questions can be directed to Dave Kreger, at housecoaching@orchardparkso
EXCEPTIONS:
Siblings may request to be on the same team IF they fall within the same age group. They must be registered and paid through the same account.
Coaches will also get to coach their own child(ren) along with ONE other player request. If you are interested in your child being on the same team as another child, please sign up to coach when you register your child.

The emphasis of the house program is on development of basic soccer skills. Previous knowledge of soccer is not necessary. All children play at least 50% of every game. Beginners are welcome in all age groups.
