U11 Boys and Girls
We are offering Division II and III teams. We will strive to put
together multiple teams and divide them based on ability and commitment.
This separation will allow the players to compete in different leagues
that are best suited for their development. The DII team requires a
higher level of commitment and ability. Travel requirements are more
demanding and typically the team is more expensive due to the added
costs of the State league. As part of your program fee, we are offering
a team preseason camp in the late July - early August time frame.
Consult the web for dates/times. In the fall, a DII team expects players
to prioritize soccer over some other extracurricular activities, while
not having to eliminate those activities. Both teams should be prepared
to compete as a team during the Fall and Spring seasons. DII teams will
compete over the course of a year but the schedule is more flexible. All
players should be attentive, punctual, and hard working. Notifying the
coaches before missing sessions and working on skills at home is very
important and necessary.
U12 Boys and Girls
We are offering Division II and III teams. U12 is the first year of
competitive tryouts for the HFC. As such, the most competitive team will
be put together to compete in the State league. There is a raised
expectation of travel and expense due to the structure of this team's
goals. In the Fall, a DII team expects players to prioritize soccer over
other extracurricular activities, while not having to eliminate those
activities. Both teams should be prepared to compete as a team during
the Fall and Spring seasons. If two teams exist, we will have a system
of promotion and relegation for our players between teams. When
appropriate a team may play DIII with a lesser travel and commitment
expectation. This is a new level for our players and their complete
dedication both physically and mentally will be needed to be successful
on these teams. As part of your program fee for the DIII teams, we are
offering a team preseason camp in the late July - early August time
frame. Consult the web for dates/times. There is a required team camp
for the top DII team. (Consult the web for more information
on the team camp.) All players should be attentive, punctual, and hard
working. Notifying the coaches before missing sessions and working on
skills at home is very important and necessary. Unavoidable missed
sessions should be replaced by attending a session with a similar team
within the club.
U13 Boys and Girls
We are offering Division I, II, and III teams. The expectations of the
DI team include an aggressive schedule of games and training to develop
a State Championship quality team. DI team(s) will have a required
team camp. (Consult the web for more information on the team
camp.) There is a raised expectation of travel, expense, and commitment
attached to the DI team. In the Fall, a DI team expects
players to prioritize soccer over other extracurricular activities,
while not having to eliminate those activities. All teams should be
prepared to compete as a team during the Fall and Spring seasons.
For the DI team, a commitment for both the Fall and Spring is
absolutely necessary to maintain competitiveness. As part of your
program fee for the DI, DII and DIII teams, we are offering a team
preseason camp in the late July early August time frame. Consult the
web for dates/times. HFC does support middle school soccer, which may
impact a player's eligibility in the spring. We will have a system of
promotion and relegation for our players between teams to promote the
most competitive situation possible. All players should be attentive,
punctual, and hard working. Notifying the coaches and discussing reasons
for missed sessions is a must. Working on fitness and personal skills at
home is absolutely necessary. Unavoidable missed sessions should be
replaced by attending a session with a similar team within the club.
U14 – 18 Boys and Girls
We are offering Region III, Division I, II, and III teams. The RIII
and Div. I teams will have a required team camp. (Consult
the web for more information on the team camp.) The expectations of the
RIII & DI teams include an aggressive schedule of games and training to
develop a State Championship quality team. There is an expectation of
travel, expense, and commitment attached to these teams due to the State
& Region league requirements. RIII and DI teams expects players to
prioritize soccer over other extracurricular activities, while not
having to eliminate those activities. The RIII & DI teams should be
prepared to compete as a team during the Fall, Spring and even the
Summer in the event of winning your State Championship. The DII and
DIII teams should also be prepared to compete as a team during the
Fall and Spring seasons. The DII team still carries a significant
commitment to play in the State league. As part of your program fee for
the DII and DIII teams, we are offering a team preseason camp in the
late July early August time frame. Consult the web for dates/times. We
do support middle school and high school soccer during the Spring
season. All players should be attentive, punctual, and hard working.

necessary. Unavoidable missed sessions should be replaced by attending a

U18 High School Prep Team
We are offering a boys and girls team that will compete as necessary to
stay sharp for the upcoming high school season. Similar to the
description above, this team could be placed in DI or DII based on the
expectations of the team, players, and directors. We will make this
determination at the tryouts after interviewing the players and parents.
The intent of these teams is to offer a reduced commitment of time,
travel, and expense but still allow the players to develop in a
professional environment. HFC would like to foster a more relaxed team
structure and provide a training/game season that will provide the
foundation for a high school bound player. There will be no required
team camp for this group.
