Programs

Active Start (Under 6)

Active Start introduces our little ones to the game of soccer through playful games. It is available to children who would like to learn the basic elements and develop their soccer skills. The program is overseen by the club head coach and executed by our talented youth coaching team.

The indoor season runs from November to April with registration opening in October, and the outdoor season runs from June to August with registration opening in April.

Recreational Program (Youth)

Learn and love the game of soccer in a positive and fun environment! This program is for players that want to have fun, be active, and develop their skills including a lifelong love of the game. Weekly sessions will take place at the Feildian Grounds and include games. Players who want to train more can register for the soccer camp mornings. The program is overseen by the club head coach and executed by our talented youth coaching team.

This program runs from June to August with registration opening in April.

Metro Program (Youth)

The Metro League is for club teams in the Metro region (Feildians, St. John's, Mt. Pearl, Paradise, CBS, PC-SP, CBN, Southern Shore and Burin). Metro League games are scheduled during the outdoor season and teams train during both the indoor and outdoor seasons.

Feildians supports and encourages our multi-sport athletes. We try and accommodate the most common clashes when scheduling our practices and we do not have strict attendance requirements as a pre-requisite to play with the club.  We do, however, expect our players to show commitment to the club and their team.

We understand that players may miss practices and games due to vacations, sickness or family circumstances. Outside of this, Metro players are expected to make all team training sessions and Metro games. Training through the winter is for players who anticipate playing in the summer. If clashes make attendance difficult, we will work with you to find a solution.  

Players are encouraged to attend the optional summer morning camps to develop their skills & friendships.

PYL Teams (Youth)

The Premier Youth League (PYL) is a province-wide club league with U12, U13, U15 and U17 age divisions. This is for players who have stronger technical & athletic ability and heightened interest in the sport. Players are selected for PYL teams after try-outs that happen in the fall of each year.

Feildians supports & encourages our multi-sport athletes. We try and accommodate the most likely clashes when scheduling our practices & do not have strict attendance requirements as a pre-requisite to play with the club.  Many of our PYL players also play competitive hockey, volleyball, basketball, baseball etc. 

Typical PYL players are highly motivated.   

We understand that players may miss practices and games due to vacations, sickness or family circumstances. Outside of this, it is expected that they attend all training sessions & games, with team managers being notified of all absences.
