Attention Incoming Men’s Soccer Student-Athletes!

College soccer starts in the Summer and runs into the Fall!

We encourage all our incoming student-athletes to enroll in our summer Soccer Techniques class (June 29 - August 6) Monday / Wednesday evenings 6:00 PM - 8:20 PM and some Thursday afternoons (PE -032M-01C in the summer schedule, call number 0931) AND Strength Development which follows each Monday and Wednesday evening (P E -04XX-03C, Call no. 0941).  Participation in the summer program gives us a longer opportunity to evaluate you and gives you a chance to get familiar with our facility, our student-athletes, our campus and our program, while you build fitness and strength for the season. Even if you are planning a vacation trip, we need to enroll you in the classes so that you may participate when you are in town.

Pre-season meetings are the week of Aug. 10th with practices starting Saturday the 15^th and team selection within a few days.  We shall have one or two scrimmages against outside schools before the regular season starts at Santa Rosa on Aug. 27th.  Obviously, we will lean heavily on our July-August program to set-up the regular season.
