The Recreation League is for players who are in Grades 4 through 8. With larger teams playing on larger fields, the Recreation League is the form of soccer that most people are familiar with. While the emphasis is still on player development, the Recreation League is a more competitive format than what is found in Micro Soccer, although not as competitive as EUSA’s Inter-County or Travel Soccer Programs. There are two divisions in the Recreation League, each of which has at least two school grades. For more information on each division, simply click on the link found to the left of this article.

While the Sayreville Father’s Day Recreation Tournament was affected by the rainy weather that weekend, one team from Edison was definitely not bothered. The U11/U12 Edison Fireballs went on to capture 1^st place in the shortened tournament.

This All-Star team is comprised of 16 girls from 7 different recreation teams from Edison United Soccer’s RL4G and RL5G divisions. During the try-outs, the coaches knew that this would be a special team. With only a few practices together, the team gelled quickly.  In the tournament, they played great and looked like they had been together for many seasons. Everyone contributed and they all deserve credit for their success.
