Getting Started with Soccer

Whether you’re new to soccer and are being introduced to the sport because of your child’s interest or you played youth soccer yourself, we want to get you started with soccer in Montana as a parent. 

Age Groups

Players are grouped together in a dedicated age group depending on their birth year. Parents should refer to the U.S. Soccer Birth Year Matrix to understand where your child falls.
