6U - 7U Recreational

Birth Years 2019 - 2018


The Recreational program at Skyline is designed to continue the long tradition of Skyline’s fun, community atmosphere that has made this program “The Heart of Denver Youth Soccer Since 1965”.


This program teaches all players the basics of the game in youth soccer. For instance, players will learn skills and rules of soccer by maximizing play through practices and games. We inspire players through a fun and skill based style of play. Our coaches challenge players to excel at the sport. Our goal is that every player will develop a solid foundation in order to thrive, be creative, and find success in whatever they aspire to do – both on and off the field!


All 6U-7U teams are coached by volunteer parents and play in-house against other Skyline teams. At this age, teams typically practice 1 time a week at a convenient location near you chosen by the volunteer coach(s). Practice days and times vary from team to team based on the needs of each team. All players wear Skyline recreational uniforms on game days that can be ordered online.


Spring youth soccer season runs from March – May, and the fall youth soccer season runs from August – October. During summer and winter months, we offer youth soccer camps and clinics.  More information can be found under the Camps and Tournaments tab.

Spring Registration: $145

Once you have registered your player, Skyline staff will begin assigning players. Returning players registered prior to the returning player deadline will be placed back on their teams (from the previous season only) first.


For players new to Skyline or New to the age group (not on a team from the previous season) will be added to teams based on the registration criteria and on a first come first served basis. In the registration form, coach and friend requests can be made. In addition, you can also select practice region. Unfortunately, not all of these requests can be accommodated. For example, a specific team may already have their maximum number of players on the roster.


After taking coach and friend requests into consideration, your other practice details will be considered when assigning players to a team. While we cannot honor every request, we will do our absolute best to place your player in an appropriate environment.


Priority placement will be given to players registered prior to the deadline. After the returning player deadline, Skyline can no longer guarantee placement for new or returning players.


If Skyline is unable to place your player we will refund you your registration fees.

Skyline is an adidas club and requires adidas uniforms to be worn on game days. The cost of the new full kit is about $45-$50 (based on youth and adult sizes). For ordering and more information please visit our Uniforms page.


Although Skyline only requires certain items in your uniform kit, your player will need:


  • Shin Guards: All players are required to wear shin guards during all training and matches. Shin guards are to be worn underneath soccer socks.
  • Cleats: All players are strongly encouraged to purchase cleats to wear in training and matches.
  • Soccer Ball: Skyline encourages all players to bring their soccer ball with them to all training sessions and matches. 6U/7U players use a size (3) three soccer ball.
  • Water Bottle: All players should bring their own water to all training and matches.

The uniform must be purchased from Soccer.com. The other items can be bought online or through your local sports retail store. For more information, please visit our Uniforms page.

When will I find out what team my child is on? In the fall season, this information will be emailed to your during the second week of August. In the spring season, you will be notified during the second week of March. You will be notified of your coach’s name and practice day, time, and location. Timing of the announcement is dependent on when a volunteer coach is confirmed.


When will practices begin? Skyline receives park permits from DPR each season. Practices will begin two weeks prior to the first game. Please check the ‘Important Dates’ for specific dates.


When will the game schedule be released? The 6U-8U games are played against other Skyline teams. Please check the ‘Important Dates’ tab for specific dates which will be updated each season.


Where are games played? 6U-7U games will be played at Harvard Gulch North Park.


How many games will we have per season? Each age group will have 8 games per season.


Can my child play up and age group? At Skyline, we do have a few players who ‘play up.’ but these players are the exception. All players who play up need approval from the Director of Coaching. When determining whether a player is ready to play up, the player must be ready soccer-wise, physically, and socially. We will not have players play up more than one age group.


How do we know if a game or practice has been rained out? Please check the Skyline Field Status on our homepage or call the weather line at 720.317.2882. During the week, the weather line is updated by 3:00p and by 7:30a on weekends.


What if my child does not get placed on a team? You will receive a full refund.

Optional 6U – 7U SKILLS Training

6U-7U SKILLS is a program designed for the 6U or 7U player who craves more training. Skyline Trainers deliver this series of advanced training sessions once a week, for four weeks throughout each fall/spring season.


SKILLS focuses on teaching players the essential topics for 6U-7U players in conjunction with the Skyline Player Development Plan, our soccer development model. At SKILLS, players are grouped to enhance the learning process. Players may be moved between groups through the program to help find a place where a player will gain the most out of training. 6U-7U players: 48 players max


*Cancellation Procedures: We will cancel a session if the fields are closed or the weather is unsafe. You are guaranteed 3 out of the 4 sessions.
