How do I register my child for Mill Valley Soccer?
Registration is easy. You have two choices: if your child is in U-10 or older, you can register by downloading our forms here and mailing them in, or you can go to the in-person registration.  Updates and times and locations given here.


How can I sign up to coach a team?
When you download the info for mail-in registration, you will receive a "coach volunteer" form, please fill it out and mail it in with your child's registration. If you register in-person, please fill out a "coach volunteer" form.

What are the requirements to coach a team?
MVSC requires all coaches to have at least an "F" level license. THE MVSC will sponsor free clinics prior to the start of the season for those coaches without a license. check calendar

I don't want to coach, what else can I do?
The entire club is run by volunteers. You can be a big help in any of the following areas: registration, web site photographer, Picture Day, jamborees and tournaments, or get involved as an Age group Commissioner, board member, field set-up. Sign up at registration!

When do we know what team we are on?
Teams are formed after the last registration date. This process may take up to two months. Coaches will notify the players on their teams before June 20.

What is the draft?
For age-groups beginning with U-10, a draft is held to form balanced teams. Coaches meet to select players in rounds, one player to each team in each round, until all players have been assigned to a team.

Can my child transfer to another team?
Only under exceptional circumstances do we allow players to change teams. Because we have done our best to create balanced teams, moving one player has the potential to create a chain reaction. Requests must be approved by the Player Agent. Requests to change must be made to the coach of the assigned team, who will assist the parent in contacting the age-group commissioner and the Player Agent.

Can my child play on the same team as his friend?
We allow players to request one or several friends at registration, and try very hard to accommodate the requests. However, due to the need to create balanced teams, we cannot honor every request. When we are not able to put the friends on the same team, we strongly encourage the players (and parents) to be open to meeting new kids on their teams. Players usually make new friends and have a successful and fun soccer season.

Does my child need a uniform?
All recreational players wear the same uniform: reversible red/blue shirt with MVSC logo, white shorts, red/blue socks over shin guards, and soccer cleats. Note: shin guards are mandatory, and baseball cleats are NOT allowed.

Where are practices and games held?
Almost all practices and games are held on Mill Valley soccer fields, which are shown here.   Additionally, fields in Corte Madera, San Clemente and Sausalito are used by some age-groups.

If my child decides not to play, can I get a refund?
Refunds of 50% of the registration fee (not including $50.00 late fee) will be made if the player withdraws prior to September 1. After September 1 there are no refunds.
