General Information 11-Aside

11-Aside division is for the oldest players of our youth club. The game is played on a full size regulation field. Players compete 11 against 11. Average team size is 18 players.

U-12 through U-18 players will continue to develop their soccer skills, along with heightened physical endurance and cardio vascular training.
 
Players, depending on age category, will be required to play either 30 minute or 45 minute halves.

As the players move from 7-Aside to 11-Aside, the competitive arena is once again elevated.  Success of teams will largely be dependent on organised practices, specialized soccer clinics and commitment from Coaches, Assistants and Players.
 
The Dollard Soccer Club offers a great platform to develop your child's soccer skills while allowing them to learn the values of sportsmanship, team spirit, discipline, dedication and the respect required in a competitive environment.
 
We look forward to a successful, challenging and enjoyable experience this Season.  Participation in this wonderful sport will ultimately enhance your child's athletic abilities while contributing to their overall fitness and good health. 
 
Thank you for supporting your child as well as the Dollard Soccer Club.
