MVAA Soccer participates in two leagues:
MVAA In-House Soccer
Junior Academy (Pre K- 4's)
This is designed to be fun and interactive. We utilize unique games to focus on basic soccer skills like dribbling, passion and shooting. Our goal is to cultivate a love of the game at an early age. For kids interested in learning the fundamentals of soccer and gain experience, this is a great place to start. Practice is one evening per week (TBD once coaches are identified) and on Saturdays. Players must turn 4 before or within the season.

Voluteer Support Positions
The success of our program has always been a direct result of volunteer participation in several important areas:
- Coaching – a crew of four or five members from each age group to facilitate games during practices; weekly lesson plans are distributed at the pre-season coaching clinic.
- Team Manager- team manager will work closely with coaches throughout the season to help with season events, information, distribution, etc.
- Field Maintenance - a crew of four to paint field lines and general members assist with game day field set-up and take-down.
Equipment Needs
MVAA provides jerseys and socks. Players need to have black shorts, shin guards and soccer cleats.
