FINISHING WELL

The last two weeks decide what families remember. Here's how the U6 and U8 finish, how to run the U10–U19 end-of-season tournament weekend, and how to close out the season so next year starts easier.

U6 & U8 · May 15, 2027

THE LAST GAME

Our youngest age groups wrap with their final regular game — no tournament, no standings. Make it a celebration: medals, parents on the field, and a photo before anyone leaves.

U10–U19 · May 29 weekend

END OF SEASON TOURNAMENT

U10 through U19 close the season at the end-of-season tournament. Multiple games in a day means roster confirmations, shade, and water planning — not just showing up.

Team Party

KEEP IT SIMPLE

Hand this to the team parent and let them run it. Simple, cheap, and on the calendar beats elaborate and cancelled.

01

Picnic at California Soccer Park after the last game — shade, snacks, families already there

02

Potluck at a family's house with a simple signup from the team parent

03

Pizza and awards at a local spot — book early for the May 29 weekend

04

Keep it short and cheap: two hours, a thank-you to parents, and a player-voted award or two

05

Collect one photo per player for a season collage, and share the album with everyone

Close-Out

LEAVE IT BETTER

Thirty minutes of admin at the end of the season saves the club a month of chasing, and it's what makes next season run smoother for you too.
