Interleague Players

Interleague Players: Ages 9+Elaina&Cassie-ScholarshipWinners

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 2012/spring 2013 season is now open through June 30.  We will hold one walk-in registration date of June 14  from 7 – 9 pm at our league office in the Rainbow Center.  Our office is located off the back parking lot of the Rainbow Center – the green door.   The Rainbow Center is located at 293 Buffalo Street.

Attention U9 Players – for the upcoming fall 2012 season, you will need to purchase an away “white” shirt for games.  White shirts, as well as all other pieces of the Lindenhurst Interleague uniform, can be purchased through Murphy’s Sport Shack in Babylon Village.  Murphy’s is located on Deer Park Avenue and is open 7 days per week for your convenience.  Visit Murphy’s on the web at www.murphyssportshack.com

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 date.   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 .

What does my registration fee entail? Our registration fee covers playing seasons for both the Fall ’12 season (September – November 2011) and the Spring ‘13 season (April – June 2012). 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!)  Please note – our league policy is that we offer no refunds for registration and uniforms.

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.
