Delaware County Futbol Club

What the club offers

Youth recreation is built as an in-house league: DCFC teams play other DCFC teams so beginners and returning players can grow in a familiar club environment. Programming spans small-sided divisions for the youngest ages through older youth brackets that move toward nine-a-side at Yorktown fields. Families should expect one practice night per week for most recreation divisions, with Saturday games for many older groups, while several introductory divisions combine practice and game into a single weekly session. Each recreational player receives a team shirt with registration, volunteer coaches lead teams, and before the season coaches receive access to the MOJO app for practice ideas plus additional session plans through the club’s Coaches’ Corner resources. Game formats are designed to keep players involved with the ball—more passes, goals, and one-on-one dribbling chances—so development and fun stay tied together.

Travel soccer is organized into Academy, Junior, and Senior bands. Academy focuses on player development for roughly ages six through ten. Junior travel typically covers about ages ten through fourteen, with team placement from past performance or open tryouts, roughly eight to ten league games each outdoor season, and about one or two tournaments per outdoor season. Senior travel serves roughly ages fourteen through nineteen with a similar league-and-tournament rhythm. Most athletes participate full year, while half-year options exist for families who need a shorter commitment. Travel teams usually train two or three nights per week and compete against clubs from around the region.

The adult program is a semi-competitive recreation-level league for players eighteen and older, including college-age locals, parents, coaches, and volunteers who want consistent games beyond youth training hours. Directors balance teams using skill level and position preference to keep competition friendly but meaningful, and pick-up times sit alongside organized league play. Unless otherwise announced, adult play is centered at The Cave indoor facility in Muncie.

Seasons, training, and league play

The club soccer year is divided into three parts for travel planning: an outdoor fall season from about August through October, an indoor winter block from about November through March, and an outdoor spring season from about April into early June. Recreation follows its own seasonal calendar by division, with Little Kickers-style blocks in spring months and longer runs for older recreational groups. Travel league home games are often played in Yorktown or nearby communities such as Carmel, Noblesville, Brownsburg, Fishers, Lawrence, and Bargersville; higher divisions may travel a bit farther.

Facilities and locations

Young recreational divisions use small-sided setups at The Cave and Heritage Hall Christian School, while many older recreational teams practice once weekly at Yorktown fields and play Saturday games there in seven-v-seven or nine-v-nine formats. Travel training and many home games tie back to the same Yorktown area base, with road matches across central Indiana as schedules require. Adult soccer defaults to The Cave at 5450 N Wheeling Avenue in Muncie.

Fees, registration, and next steps

Recreation signup runs through TeamSnap registration forms the club promotes each season. Travel families should plan around tuition bands that follow birth-year groupings: Academy eight-and-under (2018–2019 birth years) is about four hundred dollars for a full year spanning fall and spring with a winter break, or about two hundred dollars for a half-year outdoor-only slice; nine-and ten-year bands (2016–2017) are about eight hundred dollars full year or four hundred dollars half year; Junior eleven-and twelve-year bands (2014–2015) are about one thousand two hundred dollars full year or six hundred dollars half year; Junior thirteen-year (2013) is about one thousand four hundred dollars full year or seven hundred dollars half year; Junior fourteen-and fifteen-year (2011–2012) is about one thousand six hundred dollars full year or eight hundred dollars half year; Senior sixteen-through nineteen-year (2007–2010) is about nine hundred dollars for the November-through-June window that pairs indoor and spring outdoor play. Adult players register through the adult registration flow the club maintains and should watch the dedicated adult Facebook community for openings, skill balancing, and roster rules—friend groups larger than about two or three players may not land on the same team.
