Interleague Players
Interleague Players: Ages 9+
Our Interleague program fills the gap between intramural soccer and travel soccer and is an extension of our Intramural Program. Teams are registered with Suffolk Soccer Interleague (SSI) and play teams from other town clubs in their area who are at the same competitive level allowing players to keep enjoying the game.
Our registration session for the fall 2010/spring 2011 season is now closed. We will be waitlisting all players for team availability. All players will be notified by August 5th via email. Our season starts the weekend of September 11/12.
Attention U9 Players – for the upcoming fall 2010 season, you will need to purchase an away “white” shirt for games. You can order your shirt online today. Be sure to put your current shirt number on your order. Orders will be accepted through July 15. White shirts may be picked up at one of our Uniform pickup dates – August 24 or September 7.

Questions & Answers
How do I register my player? There are two ways to register. You can register online through the link above or you can register your child at our walk-in date. Online registration will accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. Cash and checks will only be accepted at our walk-in registration dates. You are able to download the registration forms from our website and complete ahead of time. If this is the first time registering with our league, you will be required to submit a copy of your child’s birth certificate which will be kept in our league office when you pickup your child’s uniform
What does my registration fee entail? Our registration fee covers playing seasons for both the Fall ’10 season (September – November 2010) and the Spring ‘11 season (April – June 2011). Our interleague players are eligible to participate in our Wednesday Night training sessions at no additional cost. We offer field training sessions, as well as keeper training! (See our Training page for further details!)
My child played with the league last year, do I need a new uniform: No, you will not need a new uniform. For those players that are making the transition from Intramural to Interleague Divisions by moving in the U9 division, the addition of one white shirt will be needed. Our league uniform for the Interleague Division will consist of two shirts (white & green), one pair of shorts (green) and one pair of socks (white) – travel and home uniforms. The cost of the shirt is $18. Be sure indicate the player number when ordering your shirt.
What equipment is needed for the players? Each and every time a player steps unto the field, shin guards should be worn. This is games as well as practices. Soccer cleats are preferred but not necessary. At no time will baseball cleats or football cleats be allowed. Each player should bring their own soccer ball to practices. Players in the U7 – U11 divisions will use a Size 4 ball and U12 and above divisions will use a Size 5 ball.
When and where are games played? Our teams are registered with SSI (Suffolk Soccer Interleague). Home games are played at either Shore Road, Venetian Shores Park or the Lindenhurst Middle School. Away games are scheduled for neighboring towns in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Games are scheduled for weekends. Schedules are provided at the beginning of each season. Our fall season runs from mid September through mid November; our spring season runs from early April through mid June.
Is there a practice schedule? As our league is volunteer organization, we ask our coaches to follow our guideline of “one practice per week.” Practice dates, times and locations are at the discretion of the coaches. We hold permits to a majority of the Lindenhurst soccer fields as well as Shore Road and Venetian Shores Parks. Practices are usually held on these properties during our permitted times.
Can I request a specific coach or team for my child? We do not commit to honoring placement requests. Starting in the U6 Division and up, teams are formed by placing players according to their prior coaches’ assessment of their skill set. This assists us in forming teams as evenly as possible. If your child has never played before, they will be placed on the next team in need of a player in their age group.
