Outdoor Registration
Please remember No volunteer coaches = No teams.
We continue to try to improve our soccer program each year. Our volunteers make our program a success, and we hope that everyone continues to appreciate them as much as we do.
2024 Outdoor Season for U4-U19 (2020-2005)

New players to the EMSA program: once you have registered on www.emsasoccerportal.com (instructions below), you will need to verify your date of birth; please click here.
Teams are normally formed based on your child’s birth year. However, EMSA West allows you to make special requests, such as playing up an age group, on your registration form. Please know that while we will do what we can to grant requests, there are no guarantees of meeting player placement requests. Click here to read the full policy.
Community Soccer coordinators try their best to place your child on a team in your community; however, it is not always possible. They will try to find a spot in a community within the west zone. If there are no spots within the west zone, you will be contacted.
Note: If you do not see your community when registering, your child will be placed in the closest hosting community.
