PENDLETON FC
Upper Rec Division
Our upper recreational division consists of our Upper Rec Division (u7-u10) and our Rec Plus Division (u12-u15)
u7 Division
New for the fall 2024, Pendleton FC will be adding a u7 division. This division will play 4v4 on the smaller field without a goalie. Teams will play games with 4 to minute quarters and a 5 min half. Players will play both defensive and offensive positions, with the goal of learning to play the field, attack the ball, and continue to develop their skills with passing and playing with teammates. There will be NO goalkeepers in the u7 division which will allow players to learn to protect their goal from a defensive position.
u8 Division
u8 division will play 5v5 with a goalie. Players will learn to play offensive and defensive positions, learning to stay in "their lanes" on the field will still attacking the ball. This division will begin the use of a goal keeper, allowing players to develop their skills in the goal. Players are encouraged to play all positions on the field as this is the fundamental developmental time for players to learn field positioning, moving as a team, and player positioning.
