Maybe your child has displayed a promising talent in soccer and you’d like to see where it goes.
Or, maybe they just need to burn off some energy while making friends and learning about teamwork.
Either way, there are a number of leagues practicing in Fulton County for you to choose from.
Let’s take a look:
The club fields more than 1,000 players in age groups from 5 to 18, with teams that compete in leagues organized by the Georgia Youth Soccer Association with the help of the United States Youth Soccer Association. The club uses many fields in Fulton County; the home fields are next to Marist High School on Ashford-Dunwoody Road.
The Atlanta-based group has offered youth programs for decades, including the more recent addition of Station Soccer at MARTA's Five Points Station. Youth programs are held at the downtown Atlanta field on weekends; see more information here.

The nonprofit offers recreational and competitive soccer leagues for boys and girls ages 3 to 18 near downtown Atlanta. The club uses multiple fields located in Fulton County.
