The Junior Soccer League for the fall of 2018 has been canceled due to lack of participation. We hope to have it return for 2019.

The Junior Soccer League provides a fun and safe environment to introduce children to the “world’s most popular sport.”

The three-week program for students in first through sixth grades begins Monday, October 22, 2018 with practice or games each Monday and Thursday from 5:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. until Thursday, November 8.

On game days, coaching staff and former players conduct 20 to 30-minute instructional practices followed by short-sided games (3v3, 4v4 or 5v5). All practices and games will take place at Cavalier Fields on our soccer fields.

Cost: $65* (includes MDS soccer t-shirt and ball)

*Discounted rates are available for registering more than one child or if you can only attend half the sessions. Email Iain Jones (iain.jones@mountdesales.net) for more information

2018 Junior Football – REGISTRATION IS CLOSED!

You can register online or come on Saturday, August 18 to Cavalier Fields from 10:00am-12:00pm. The fields are located at 4659 Cavalier Drive.  Contact keith.hatcher@mountdesales.net or iain.jones@mountdesales.net if you have any questions.

Flag Football for First and Second Graders – Flag football is a great way for the beginners to get started and have fun playing the game. It is played on a smaller field, and it’s a great introduction to the game with no contact. There will be games played in-house to introduce the boys to play in a competitive atmosphere.

Junior Division Tackle Football for Third and Fourth Graders – The Junior Division is great for those getting started in tackle football. There will be great emphasis on learning the fundamentals of the game, such as blocking and tackling, and the teaching will be very introductory. They will participate in the league including other Macon schools.

Senior Division Tackle Football for Fifth and Sixth Graders – The Senior Division is a great way to develop your skills as you prepare for middle school and high school football. The Senior Division will compete in a league including other Macon schools, and we will continue to emphasize fundamentals as they further develop their skills.

In each league, the coach’s will emphasize teaching the game in a positive way, and each player on the team will participate in all games and practices. MDS varsity football players will be coaching all teams. Practices will primarily be on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00PM – 7:30PM, but some games will be on Mondays as well. We will try our best to avoid any Wednesday s and/or weekends.

Cost:
$100 (Third – Sixth Grade, Junior & Senior Division)
$75 (First – Second Grade, Flag Division)
