Boys and Girls born in birth years 2009-2022. In the 2019-2022 age groups (Under 4-Under 7) we do take teammate requests, therefore if you would like to play with friends, we encourage you to notate that on your registration form in the special requests section.

In the 2009-2018 age groups, players are drafted and only coach and assistant coaches’ children are guaranteed a spot on the same team. We do have drafts in the Under 8, Under 9, Under 10 age groups and above. (this upcoming season it will be players born in 2018 and before) Therefore only head coach and assistant coach will be guaranteed to be together. All other players are drafted.

Practice Days and Times:

Practice times for ALL ages are determined by individual volunteer coaches AFTER teams form. Teams may or may not choose to practice before opening jamboree. It is the volunteer coach and team decision

Player Contact Timeline:

Early registration will close on August 1. Late registration will run August 2-August 8 with a $35 late fee. After that point, ALL players will be wait-listed. If you know someone else interested in playing, please refer them to our club and have them go ahead and register. We would love to have them join us! 

All players born in the 2016-2022 age groups should hear from a coach by August 19, 2025 at 7:00pm, if not before. Do not be alarmed if your child is not contacted immediately after registration closes as some groups will hear from coaches before others.

As our volunteer age group coordinators get information together on teams, they will pass along to coaches. Coaches are volunteers and some coaches do take longer to contact teams then others. However, all players should be contacted by a coach by August 19, 2025, at 7:00pm. If you are not contacted by a coach by that time, please email us at [email protected] after 7:00pm and we will have your coach information and game information for opening day on August 23.

Coaching:

Please remember that teams cannot be formed without parent volunteers, so if you did not sign up to coach during registration, please consider doing so, no experience needed! 

Every team needs a parent(s) to volunteer to coach. There are plenty of coaching activities on our website as well to guide you as well as current coaches who will help you learn. NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY - you can learn with your child.

Sign up during the registration process to get started helping these young players! Every coach does have to undergo a background check prior to coaching.

Player equipment needed:

All players should have a ball, shin guards and appropriate footwear (soccer cleats). Players will be provided two jerseys. Players born in 2019-2022(U4-U7) should have a size 3 soccer ball. Players born in 2014-2018 (U8, U10 and U12) should have a size 4 soccer ball, and players born in 2009-2013 (U13-U16) should have a size 5 soccer ball. These can be purchased at any local sporting goods stores. 

JFC Work Party:

Please also mark your calendars for Saturday, August 17. JFC will be having work party. This will begin approximately 8:00am and is the day we need lots of volunteers to help get the fields ready for play after the summer break. If you have never lined a field, there will be plenty of people to help you learn! Not good at lining? There will be plenty of things that can be done other than lining fields. It is also a great source of community service hours for any students who may need them. Please pass this along to everyone you know and help us get geared up for the fall soccer season!

Team formation disclaimer:

On older teams (2011-2014), because of team size limitations, JFC cannot guarantee the player a spot on a team if the team is already full OR if there is not enough interest to form a team. JFC complies with all applicable rules of the Mississippi Soccer Association regarding the registration and rostering of players. However, if you register before July31, there should not be any problems placing your child on a team in these age groups. If denied you will receive a full monetary refund. Please be aware at these age groups, teams may choose to form as Coed teams based on the number of boys and girls signed up. However, we will make sure there are an equal balance of games against other girls’ teams and boys’ teams in regular play. If there is not enough players signed up to form a team in U11,U12, U13 or U14, your money will be refunded
