Outdoor 2025 Program Information

Welcome to Meridian Soccer! It’s that time of year to register for outdoor programming!

Whether it’s your first season or far from it, we’re happy to have you. 

 Meridian Soccer offers programming for ages 2 - 17, a skills academy and a goalkeeping academy.

New programming Alert! 

U5, and U7, and U9 Lil Ballers program.

Lil Ballers is a fun, engaging soccer program designed for players ages 4-8. Lil Ballers will be Head Coached by experienced staff coach Doyle Church. This program focuses on developing the player physically and technically, with ball mastery in an environment for players wanting to learn and develop a soccer mindset.  

Through age-appropriate skill sessions, small-sided games, and interactive activities, we are excited to add this component to our club.  Lil Ballers strives to improve each player and their experience. This program will better prepare each player for short- and long-term goals. Lil Ballers registration spots will be filled on a first-come, first-serve, with limited spots available. All three age groups will be coed groups. There is no "league play". 

Join us on the field and watch your little baller shine!

Parent & Tot - Kindersoccer 2-3 year
Introduce your little one to the joys of soccer with our Kindersoccer program, designed especially for toddlers ages 2-3. This engaging, parent-and-tot program is the perfect way to bond with your child while helping them develop basic motor skills and a love for the game.

Coaches Needed! We're looking for head coaches for our upcoming season. If you complete all coaching requirements and lead at least 80% of the training sessions, you'll receive a refund of your child's registration fees at the end of the season. Question? Email or call registrar@meridiansoccer.ca 306-830-8030.

Local League - Under 5 - Under 9
There is no tiering or selection process, but our technical coaches will work to balance the teams evenly. Players will be grouped into small teams with a practice and game schedule two times per week. All sessions are led by parent volunteers, with on-field support from Club Head Coach Zach Wagner.

Local League - Under 10 - Under 13
There is no tiering or selection process, this programing is for those players not on travel teams. Players will be grouped together into teams, and teams will be dependent on overall numbers.  There will be two games per week, which will be led by parent volunteers. 

Travel Team Program - Under 10 - Under 15
Players interested in trying out for a travel team must attend evaluations and be assessed. Based on their development and experience, they will be placed on either a travel team or the recreation league.

If your child is in the Under-9 age group and would like to try out for Under-11 evaluations, please email a request to registrar@meridiansoccer.ca.

The travel team program has higher costs than the League Program, and participants are expected to attend two practices per week, and the team-selected tournaments.
