Return to Play

Now that social distancing restrictions have been lowered in the State of Florida regarding youth activities we want to share with you the guidelines given to us by US Youth Soccer and the Florida Youth Soccer Association. These Covid-19 Guidelines MUST be followed by all members of The Villages Soccer Club. Things may be different but we are glad to be able to get back together to officially start our 2020-2021 competitive season!

We do understand that not all athletes and families are ready to return to play at this time. We respect your decision. Please contact us so we can discuss your specific situation.

Updates to the guidelines will be posted on this page for reference as we navigate our return to play.

GO BUFFALO!
