What ages and program levels does Old Bridge Soccer Club offer?Recreation soccer is open to players about ages 3 through 18, split into separate boys and girls leagues, with no tryouts. Divisions are named Mini Mites through Masters, keyed to birth year each season. Masters focuses on high school students who want rec play with five Geick Park home games and five away games in nearby Mercer, Monmouth, and Middlesex County towns. Travel soccer adds a tryout-based, higher-competition track. Just4Kixs is an adaptive program for children with special needs, using buddies and coaches in structured small-group play; enrollment runs through just4kixs.org for families who want that pathway in addition to OBSC recreation and travel.
Where does Old Bridge Soccer Club train or play?Primary complexes include the Higgins Road and Ticetown Road sites in Old Bridge, Geick Park off County Road 516, Phillips Park on Maple Street, and Lombardi Field on County Road 516. Field-status updates name individual pitches within those complexes. Club mail goes to P.O. Box 160, Old Bridge, NJ 08857.
When are tryouts or registration?Recreation soccer never requires tryouts; families register when seasonal windows open. For spring 2026 the club set recreational registration to close March 27, 2026. Travel tryouts are announced for multi-season blocks such as Fall 2026 and Spring 2027, with registration and tryout signup handled through the Stack Sports login used across OBSC programs. Each recreation player may submit only one valid teammate preference, and incomplete names may void the request.
What is the club’s mission or coaching approach?OBSC exists to teach soccer to Old Bridge-area children through recreation and travel, emphasizing coaching, training, and sportsmanship across race, background, and creed. Recreation stresses fun, leadership, and equal opportunity regardless of skill, while travel selects the best available players in each age group after fairly evaluating everyone who tries out. On the field, recreation rules require shin guards, limit jewelry, and keep spectators clear of player areas and behind the goals so referees can manage games safely.
How does the work bond work?Work-bond checks secure a family volunteer commitment tied to recreation participation. The club collects checks at in-person nights, not through the mail, and must receive them before the draft so children are placed on teams and receive uniforms. Families book shifts on the SuperSaas work-bond schedule; if weather cancels a game on their day, they reschedule. Skipping the shift or the volunteer obligation can lead to the check being cashed. Email workbond@oldbridgesc.com for program-specific questions.
