Fall soccer for children in preschool through grade 6.
Registration deadline: Monday, September 13, 8am.
Memo posted 9/9/2021 1:30pm: As you are undoubtedly aware, the RSU 21 community has a number of students who have recently tested positive for Covid-19 as well as a high number of students quarantined due to associated exposures. In support of the efforts of RSU 21 to stop the spread of Covid-19 within the school population, particularly among the younger students who are unable to be vaccinated, we will delay the start of the soccer season. There will be no soccer this Saturday, September 11 or Saturday, September 18, 2021.
The Rec Departments of Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, and Arundel will reconvene on Monday morning to assess the situation and make a determination about soccer practices and games that are scheduled to begin at the end of next week. We will continue to monitor the local situation from week to week, and we are looking forward to getting the fall soccer season up and running as soon as we can safely do so. Please watch your email for weekly updates.
This program will follow the Maine Recreation & Parks Association's Youth Sports Philosophy. Maine Recreation & Parks Association's Youth Sports Philosophy: ""The Maine Recreation and Parks Association (MRPA) philosophy on youth sports is to maintain an enriched quality of life for Maine youth through creative and meaningful sports and leisure experiences and to form a harmonious relationship between sports, people, and their environment. MRPA promotes the benefits of youth sports to provide fun, active and educational experiences, intended to support development for children and to serve as a positive outlet for parents to connect with their young athlete.
