Welcome to the official site of the Kearney Soccer Club!

This fall, US Soccer (the governing body of all soccer in the United States), released a statement indicating that they would be reexamining how youth soccer determined ages for registration. Specifically, whether to continue with the current calendar year model or whether an academic year model might be preferred.

Through their main youth organizations - USYSA, US Club Soccer, AYSO, etc… US Soccer sought information, opinion and feedback in order to help determine a path to follow. In late December, US Soccer released a decision statement indicating that they would make no changes for the current soccer year nor the following Soccer year (2025-26), and starting with the 2026-27 soccer year invested groups would have the ability to determine for themselves which calendar works best for their respective organizations.

Kearney Soccer Club will not be making any changes to how we determine age classifications for our Competitive and Select programs this spring or during the next soccer year (2025-26). As the 2026-27 year approaches, we will evaluate what our governing bodies (Nebraska State Soccer, Nebraska Youth Soccer League) decide to do and act accordingly.  If any new developments occur in the meantime, we will deal with those at that time.

For our Micro and Developmental programs there will be no changes this spring and none anticipated for the 2025-26 year. We do reserve the right to constantly evaluate those two programs in order to provide the best programming for our youngest players.

Registration for the following programs will start on January 1.
