U8/U9 Division
Registration for the Fall '23 season will open soon!
U8/U9 Division
EGSA's Co-ed U8 & U9 divisions are combined and called U9. The U9 division has a weekly foot skills clinic, a weekend game, and a team practice. The clinic day is on a weekday and the parent coach chooses the team practice day. Games are on Saturdays in the fall and Sundays in the Spring.
Foot skills clinics are coached by Challenger trainers. The parent coach ensures each player has equal playing time and the game rules are being followed. Parent coaches also hand out jerseys and help EGSA with communication to team families. We have resources for team practices (U8 and older) on this website. We also offer the MOJO Sports app to help design practices and communicate with families. Student Volunteers can also help with practices.
How to find team information.
This website has general information about the season and EGSA. The GotSport registration system is where we create teams and make schedules. Use both to determine your player's team and schedule as they become available.
Log in, select "Family".
Select your player's name.
Select "Team Management" to view the team name.
When you login to GotSport, you are in your own account. Go to the "Family" tab to find your player and get their team information.
