3v3 SOCCER TOURNAMENT
TBD
Our Spooktacular is a One-Day 3v3 tournament for instructional/recreational players in the 2014/2015 (U8) thru (High School) age groups.
Each year we close out our Fall Recreational season with our 3v3 Spooktacular tournament. This tournament is for recreational players and teams from Delaware FC Hockessin and other local clubs and schools. The tournament is great fun for our local soccer community!
Are you having trouble forming a team? Is your coach unavailable for the event? Does your team have too many interested players for one team, but not enough for two? While we encourage teams to participate with their current Fall teams, it is not required. Any parent can register and coach any group of recreational players. Organize your teams with teammates, friends or classmates. Don't miss out!
