Getting Help from Ballenger Creek Recreation Council Soccer

Welcome to BCRC Soccer, where recreational soccer is fun and affordable.   Registration for the Spring 2012 season is now open. 

REGISTRATION HAS BEEN CLOSED FOR ALL AGE GROUPS WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ACADEMY (U-8 AND YOUNGER).

Important dates:

A late fee will be applied to all registrations received after January 27, 2012 except for players registering for the U-19 team - the late for that age group will be waived for registrations received on or before Tuesday February 7, 2012.

Provided below is a summary of our age group offerings and the associated fees.  Note that age groups are determined by the players age on July 31, 2011.  Using a 10 year old as an example: if the player turns 10 on, or before, July 31, 2011 then the player would be too old for the U-10 (UNDER 10) age group and would be considered to be a U-11 player.  If the player turns 10 on August 1, 2011, or after, then the player would still qualify for the U-10 age group.  

The BCRC Academy Program is for U-5 through U-8 players.  The emphasis of the Academy program is teaching the players basic soccer skills in a fun, no pressure, environment.  The U-5 age group will participate in the BCRC Academy Clinic, an instructional clinic that is offered once a week.  Players in the U-6 age band will also participate in the BCRC Academy Clinic and will have games against other BCRC U-6 teams on Saturdays.  The U-7 and U-8 age bands will practice twice per week and will play in the Double Nickel League (games are 5 v 5) against other local soccer programs on Saturdays.  All Academy players receive a T-shirt (no separate uniform needed) and a participation award.  The registration fee for the Academy is $65 per player except for the U-5's where the fee is $50.

The BCRC Travel Team Program is for the U-9 through U-14 age groups.  U-9 players may play in either the Hexaleague (games are 6 vs 6) or in the Frederick County Youth Soccer League ("FCYSL").  Hexaleague games are played on Saturday afternoons at a field in either Adamstown or Buckeystown.  U-10 throught U-14 players (and possibly U-9) will be placed on teams that will compete in the FCYSL in the U-10, U-12 or U-14 age divisions.  Most teams practice twice a week and the FCYSL season consists of 8 games against teams from Frederick County as well as adjoining areas.  Most games are on Saturdays but a few may be held on Sundays.  The fee for U-9s through U-12s is $85 per player.  The fee for U-13s and U-14s is $95 per player.  In addition each player will need a BCRC uniform. The full uniform kit (jersey, shorts, socks) costs $51 but each item may be purchased separately if needed.   Players on U-10 and U-12 teams will receive a participation award at the end of the season.

BCRC is also going to field a U-19 team for players between the ages of 14 and 18.   This team will participate in the FCYSL and is open to both female and male players.  Please note that  opposing teams may be comprised of male players only.  The registration fee for this team $95 per player.  In addition each player will need a BCRC uniform.  The full uniform kit (jersey, shorts, socks) costs $51 but each item may be purchased separately if needed.
