RAGE 2013-2014 Division 4 - Recreational Flight 2013 Evaluation Days: Please check back here for details on Flight Evaluations and to pre-register. This is for all U12 and U14 soccer players interested in playing at the Recreational level in a slightly more competitive environment.

Purpose: To enable our coaching staff to evaluate the players to ensure the teams are competitively balanced. There are two Evaluation Days and we ask that the players attend BOTH days. Every player who registers for Flight is placed on a team.

 

Evaluation Dates and Times:  TBD

 

Season Commitment

 

The Flight season begins in August and ends in November, just like the other Recreational programs. The time commitment is the same as the Recreational program. Practice dates and times are determined by the Head Coach at the beginning of the season. Games are played once a week during the season (with the exception of the Jamboree).

 

Jamboree

 

The Jamboree will be a season-ending event, played in November after the last of the league games.  The format of the Jamboree will be determined by how many teams are in each Rage Flight age group (this event is for Pleasanton Rage teams only).  It is most likely that the Jamboree will take place over the course of one weekend, and that each team may have multiple games in a single day.  The winner of each age group in the Jamboree will become the Pleasanton Rage representative in a season ending tournament.

 

Flight Coaches

 

If you are interested in being a Flight Coach for your daughter's team then we ask that you please do the following:  When you register your daughter online, mark “Head Coach” as a volunteer position for your daughter’s age group.
