WESCO Recreational
In 2026, WESCO will follow US Youth Soccer recommendations to reorganize our Rec divisions by school grade cut off birthdate instead of birth year. This Age group change is intended to allow your child to play with their classmates—kids from the same grade—rather than all kids born in the same calendar year. Studies found that aligning teams with the school grade cut off date (August 1 - July 31) creates a better experience because kids play with teammates at the same social, emotional, and developmental stage.
Our regular Rec season is open to players born between August 1st, 2012 to July 31st, 2022.
All players born on or before July 31st, 2018 must attend one evaluation day on either May 16th or 31st. Click here for more information about evaluations. The WESCO United Recreational season runs from August to October and more information about our Rec season can be found in the Recreational Handbook.
The WESCO Recreational program is broken down into divisions by player age groupings (Aug 1-July 31). Recreational Season Registration Fees for 2026 (includes a $25 processing fee):
