Attempts will be made to reschedule rained out games, but we cannot guarantee they will all be rescheduled. Games are played on Saturdays and Sundays.

CBAA Intramural Soccer leases the athletic fields from the Central Bucks School District, Buckingham, Doylestown & Plumstead Townships; our use of these fields is managed by the District/Township and is dependent upon the overall condition of the fields. 

Note: All players must wear black shorts, black socks, shin guards, and soccer cleats. Bring a ball and water to each practice/game. 

Uniform -- Our player jerseys consist of a "home" green jersey and an "away" white jersey through our Adidas store. Jerseys may be re-used from season to season. Players who are participating in U12 and above must have a number on their jersey. Jerseys, black Adidas shorts, and black Adidas socks can be purchased during registration. 

Practice Night: 

Practice nights for U10 and above are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays 

 Mondays and Fridays may be reserved for rain dates

• Coaches choose their practice nights. 
• Players choose which night they are able to practice during their registration.
• There is no weekday practice for U05 and U06 registrants. 

Team Formations: Teams will be formed based on various factors that include player evaluations (for U12 through U19 leagues), number of seasons played/experience, carpooling requests, practice day availability, school attended, coach requests, and friend requests. Head Coaches can be assigned up to two of their child's friends, which includes any request for a specific Assistant Coach. 

Parents in the junior division (U10 and under) may request a child's friend to be on the same team as long as that request is mutual. However, we cannot guarantee all such requests. U12 and up will follow a player draft for team formations in order to create fair and evenly matched teams. 

Volunteering: CBAA relies on parents to volunteer their time to support our athletic programs. For parents who are unable to volunteer their time, we offer a buy-out fee so that we can supplement our volunteers with paid help. 

• Volunteer coaches are needed to make this program a great experience for the children. All coaches as well as volunteers must complete an annual online Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer (EPYS) Risk Management Assessment.
• In addition, all coaches must be in compliance with the new PA Child Protective Services Laws. All coaches must complete annual concussion training and attend the Positive Education Workshop.
• Lastly, all coaches must attend the Coaches Clinic prior to the start of the season. The clinic is run by our DOC and trainers.
