  • Day 2 (scrimmage) may include evaluation support by parent volunteers. We require that parent volunteers involved in the evaluation process do not have a child trying out in that age group.

In 2016 US Youth Soccer and Massachusetts Youth Soccer made changes to the age groups and players are now placed in grade groups rather than age groups. What we had known as U10 is now the G4 (Grade 3/4 Group) and the former U12 is the G6 (Grade 5/6  Group).

In addition, in 2019, Boxford, Topsfield and Middleton combined its G6 and G8 Girls and Boys programs.    Therefore, all G6 and G8 teams are part of a Masco Youth Soccer team, while G4 and younger are part of Boxford Youth Soccer only.  

Please reach out to BoxfordSoccer@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Boxford soccer consists of two seasons, Fall and Spring, which are approximately 8 weeks in duration. The Fall season runs from early September to early November; the Spring season runs from early April until early June, and games are scheduled on both weekends of April school vacation.  Our program is affiliated with the Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association (MYSA) and the Essex County Youth Soccer Association (ECYSA).

Information about the age groups and other soccer related topics can be found on the menu to the left of this page.
