Warwick Fire Fighters Soccer Club

What ages and program levels does Warwick Fire Fighters Soccer Club offer?Recreational soccer spans introductory U6 through senior high-school aged brackets organized by birth year each September-to-August cycle, with Tiny Tykes for two- through four-year-olds delivered by Challenger Sports at Winslow outside standard rec registration. The competitive program is a select travel track for players invited after tryouts. Referee training begins at age ten with recreational games first, then broader assignments after age thirteen when Rhode Island certification is complete.

Where does Warwick Fire Fighters Soccer Club train or play?Winslow Park at 300 Airport Road in Warwick is the club’s home field for recreational games and many central activities. Weeknight practices use schools and parks across Warwick as coaches choose locations, with a popular Wednesday evening block at Winslow for younger rec teams. Competitive travel follows Rhode Island Super Liga assignments, and families check thesuperliga.com for Super Liga schedules and field directions.

When are tryouts or registration?Recreational registration targets March 1 for spring and August 1 for fall through GotSport, with practices starting toward late March or late August and first games in early April or early September. Competitive tryouts for the next soccer year land in June when the club builds select rosters. Spring skills and keeper add-ons have started in early April for eight-week blocks when those programs run.

What do tryouts or registration cost?Recreational registration is $80 for U6 and $100 for U8 and older age groups, with a $20 reduction for each additional sibling after the first registered player. Late fees may apply after the March 1 spring and August 1 fall signup deadlines when the club keeps waitlists open. Spring keeper training has been priced at $100 with proceeds directed to the clubhouse fund. Competitive program tuition is set when coaches invite families into the relevant GotSport program.

What does a season or year of club soccer cost?Plan on the recreational fee schedule above for house soccer, remembering the sibling discount. Spring rec includes a jersey, socks, and a ball; fall seasons emphasize trophies instead. Competitive families should expect travel-level costs communicated at invitation, plus red-and-black uniform kits ordered through the club’s supplier workflow. Optional Challenger camps or Tiny Tykes tuition is billed separately through Challenger’s registration.

What is the club’s mission, philosophy, or coaching approach?WFFSC stresses fun and learning in a volunteer nonprofit setting, keeps recreational play low-pressure so kids enjoy soccer, and routes higher-drive players into balanced competitive teams. Coaches undergo background checks, receive preseason support, and follow the same code of conduct expected of players and spectators across US Youth Soccer affiliates.
