Competition Levels in Adult Soccer

The City of Fayetteville will be offering a Recreational Coed League and a Competitive Coed League. 

Recreational Coed League (Non-Competitive, Purely Fun)

The Recreational Coed League is for teams seeking a fun-first, organized coed adult soccer program. The level of competition is designed for those who prefer fun, recreational soccer playing and for those who are new to the game of soccer or are returning after not playing for an extended period. Geared toward the recreational and novice level player.    

Competitive Coed League (Moderately Competitive)

The Competitive Open League is for teams who like more competition. The majority of players have some soccer experience. Geared toward intermediate teams that are seeking to challenge themselves and others. This is for our intermediate level players to moderately competitive players. This is for any seasoned player, from competitive high school players to those who played in college.
