What is Recreational Soccer?
BRSC recreational soccer leagues are an introductory program devoted to the enjoyment of the game and the development of players. In our recreational league, the emphasis is on fun, learning how to play the game, and developing lifelong skills. Our leagues welcome players of all skill levels and abilities. Players should be free to make mistakes without feeling high-level pressure from coaches and parents to win.
Our hope is for parents to ask children if they had fun after the game. Positive reinforcement of recreational players is critical to their enjoyment of the game and benefits the child much more than discussing mistakes.
Winning games is never more important than creating a positive experience for every player. Children learn best when they feel encouraged to try new things, make mistakes, and continue improving. Our goal is to help players develop a lifelong love of the game while creating memories that keep them excited to return each season.
BRSC Recreational Soccer Leagues is a Volunteer-based program
BRSC Recreational Soccer is made possible by dedicated volunteer coaches and team managers. These volunteers are parents, family members, and community members who generously give their time to help create a positive experience for our players.
You do not need previous soccer or coaching experience to volunteer. BRSC provides coaching resources, training opportunities, and support throughout the season. The most important qualifications are a positive attitude, a willingness to help, and a commitment to ensuring every child has fun while learning the game.
Volunteer coaches play a critical role in creating an environment where players feel welcomed, encouraged, and excited to participate.
If you are interested in coaching a recreational team, please contact Recreational Director Caleb Bush at cbush@brsoccer.org.
