What ages and program levels does Southlake FC offer?Southlake FC covers roughly ages 4–18 through MOD (U5–U8), recreational teams from U9–U19, and select teams from U9–U19. Optional Minis and Juniors Academy sessions add skill training for U5–U8 players registered in MOD. Indoor futsal and camps/clinics appear in seasonal registration menus for players who want extra touches.

Where does Southlake FC train and play home games?Practices and home matches take place at sites across the Greater Renton–Tukwila service area, including Hazen and Foster high schools, Maywood and McKnight middle schools, Starfire, Ron Regis Park, Honeydew Elementary, and other district fields. Away recreational games can reach anywhere in the Puget Sound region depending on SSUL scheduling. Winter futsal uses elementary school gyms such as Hilltop Heritage and Briarwood.

When are select tryouts and how does placement work?Select tryouts for the 2026–2027 season are promoted as free, with schedules posted separately for boys and girls age groups, typically in the May window before summer training. Coaches evaluate technical ability, tactics, physical traits, attitude, and team impact; returning players are weighed alongside tryout performance. Families considering playing up must attend the older age-group tryout and are encouraged to also try out at their birth-year group as a backup. Final offers are made collaboratively by coaches and club leadership, and families decide whether to accept.

What do recreational and select seasons cost?Recreational fees are about $125 (U9) or $155 (U10–U19) for fall/winter and about $100 (U9) or $125 (U10–U19) for spring, covering referees, league and field charges, insurance, one professional training session, and game equipment—but not uniform kits, extra training, or team travel. Select full-year registration is about $425 and includes two professional training sessions plus league, field, and insurance costs, with uniforms, tournaments, and added training billed separately. Recent futsal offerings have been about $120 for six Friday sessions.

Does Southlake FC require tryouts for recreational soccer?No. Recreational registration is open until rosters fill, without tryouts. Returning players are usually placed on their prior team if they register before the early deadline; the club may adjust rosters for balance, and new players are generally added in registration order after returning athletes are placed. Every recreational player should play at least half of each game.

How can families register or get help from the club?Registration opens through the club’s online menus for MOD, recreational, select, futsal, and academy add-ons. Questions about recreational soccer can go to board volunteers listed by the club, and select families can speak with coaches or directors around tryouts for pathway or playing-up guidance. Social channels such as Facebook and Instagram share tryout dates, camp sales, and tournament news between registration cycles.
