Circle City Futbol Club

What the club offers

Little Stars introduces toddlers about 18 months to 3 years to soccer in a playful, non-competitive setting with a coach-led team, full uniform (shirt, shorts, socks), and Saturday morning sessions; families provide footwear, shin guards, and a size 3 ball, and registration is $50 per season.

Recreational soccer runs in mixed-gender divisions U4, U6, U8, U10, U12, and U14 with two seasons per year (fall and spring). Teams are formed at random with sibling and qualifying special requests honored when possible. Each player receives a game jersey, black shorts, and socks; families supply an age-appropriate ball (size 3 for U4–U8, size 4 for U10–U12, size 5 for U14), cleats, and shin guards. Parent volunteers coach every team—no prior soccer background is required. Practices are once per week at Adams Elementary during the season, and all rec games and practices take place at the club’s fields behind Adams. Registration fees are $75 for U4, $105 for U6, and $110 for U8–U14.

Select soccer serves players about 14–19 who want to keep developing after recreational brackets. Registration is $130 and includes a full uniform and socks. Roster sizes and formats depend on enrollment; teams are planned as 11v11 when numbers allow, with at least eight games and a possible end-of-season tournament. Practices run one or two nights per week as set by the coach, and the game calendar differs from the younger recreational slate.

Academy covers roughly U8–U10 as a bridge between recreation and travel, emphasizing fundamentals in a competitive but development-first setting with at least two practices per week, weekend games, and a few tournaments across the year. Travel soccer spans U11–U19 with a higher competitive bar, more tactical work, and participation in ISL plus optional tournament weekends. Travel tryout registration is free; tryouts for the 2026/2027 season are held in early June, with a supplemental tryout in the fall for athletes joining the spring portion of the travel year.

Schedules, training, and league play

Travel teams typically practice about twice per week for roughly 60–90 minutes, with nights depending on field and coach availability. Indoor training can begin in January; ISL fall games usually run from early September through the first weekend of November, and spring play runs from mid-March into late May or early June. League schedules often include six to eight ISL games plus up to two additional weekend tournaments each fall and spring. Most competition stays in the Indianapolis metro and wider Indiana, with occasional road games when division placement requires it.

Travel coaches are volunteers who hold at least a State Level E coaching license and bring playing or coaching experience to their rosters. Travel tuition is about $800 for the full year or about $550 for spring-only high school players who cannot play in the fall, plus uniform costs; those team fees cover ISL registration, referees, and tournament entries bundled into the club’s planning.

Facilities, field status, and parking

Primary outdoor soccer for recreation and many Select matches happens through a partnership with Franklin Township Community School Corporation at Adams Elementary, 7341 E. Stop 11 Road, Indianapolis. Fields are inspected daily during the season by 4 p.m.; when a field is marked closed, the entire surface stays off-limits for that day. Busy Saturdays draw large crowds, so the club asks families to follow posted parking patterns: younger age groups use the main front lot while U12, U14, and Select families use the rear lot and lane parking where marked. Free golf-cart rides for guests who need help reaching the fields are offered on rec and Select game days when volunteers are available; call (317) 771-4066 to request a ride from the lot.

Travel home matches and practices for older elite teams also use other Franklin Township school sites—such as Edgewood and Kitley intermediate schools—and additional venues including Indianapolis World Sports Park and Franklin Central High School for select Academy and elite age groups.

Fees snapshot and registration rhythm

Recreational and Little Stars registration opens ahead of each fall and spring season. When a posted season has already closed, families should email or call for waitlists, late options, or the next enrollment window rather than assuming walk-up spots. Travel families should plan for tryouts in early June (and the fall supplemental window when offered), free tryout signup, and then annual tuition plus uniform spend if a roster offer arrives.
