CiTY Newsletter - January 2, 2024



Happy New Year from CiTY!

We hope everyone has had a warm and restful holiday break filled with family, good health, and happiness. Your CiTY leadership team and coaches are excited to kick off 2024 on the field with our travel teams this month, as well as off the field at the annual United Soccer Coaches Convention in Anaheim, CA. We will be sharing best practices and networking with clubs and state associations from across the country, so we can continue to enrich our CiTY community on and off the field with fresh and collaborative ideas. CiTY Spring REC registration is open (see below for details) and we anticipate record-breaking numbers as our REC program continues to grow and evolve. We also look forward to welcoming up to 18 Get On the Bus teams in CiTY REC this spring. Registration for the always-anticipated CiTY Special Needs program will open soon, so keep your eye out in the coming weeks to register players and volunteers.


We are planning lots of exciting programming at CiTY in 2024, as we kick off the club's 10th anniversary celebration year and continue to uphold our three core philosophies:


  • We are Soccer People Serving Soccer Families
  • We Serve All Levels, Including Special Needs
  • We Develop Players On and Off the Field


Wishing our CiTY family a safe and healthy start to 2024. Go CiTY!
