Hello, CiTY Family!

We hope everyone's 2024 has gotten off to a great start. We have been hard at work planning lots of spring play for our travel, REC, U8 Academy, and Special Needs players. With our travel and U8 Academy players practicing and playing in tournaments throughout winter, it's been great to see our CiTY community staying so connected with the game and with each other. Spring season will be here before we know it, and with it, CiTY Spring 2024 REC (including Get On the Bus), CiTY Special Needs program, U8 Academy Spring, and of course, league games for our travel teams.

The CiTY community is always growing and we'd love to see your family on the field with us this spring. See details and registration links in each section below. As always, the CiTY Leadership team is ready to respond with any questions or concerns, so don't hesitate to reach out.

Go CiTY!

Congratulations!
