Three pathways, one club. From first kicks at U6 to competitive travel teams — there's a place for every player in Redding.
One club, three ways to play. Same crest, same fields, same people — the difference is how much training, travel, and commitment comes with it. Compare them side by side, then pick the one that fits your family.

Recreational01
Open play for every kid. Fun-first seasons, balanced teams, and the heart of our community. Starting Fall 2026, age groups follow U.S. Soccer's school-year model: a player's group is set by their birth date between August 1 and July 31, so age groups span two birth years and teammates usually share a grade. Use the guide below to find the right division, then register through our GotSport portal.
* All rates increase $15 after June 15th. California Soccer Park admission: $5/day (players & kids 12 & under free).
Academy02
North State Soccer's Competitive Development Academy (CDA) is a pathway into competitive soccer for U10 players. It's a year-long program — fall (12 weeks), winter (4–5 weeks), and spring (11–12 weeks) — with training twice a week for an hour and a half, typically 5:30 to 7 on either MW or TTh. There are no tryouts for CDA; it's an inclusive, player-centered development program where every child can build confidence and reach their full potential.
Optional away tournaments, playdates & winter indoor leagues may require additional fees. Multi-player family discounts apply to seasonal fees.
Competitive03

Our traveling competitive teams — KAOS (boys) and MISSFITS (girls) — compete in the NorCal Premier League. Tryouts are held in May/June and assess a player's maturity, soccer IQ, and technical ability. League matches (8–10 per season) are typically played against teams from the Sacramento region, with coaches scheduling double-headers to reduce travel. Teams also participate in 2–3 tournaments per season across Northern California and Southern Oregon.
The $250 registration fee is paid at signup, followed by 9 monthly payments (or the 9 months paid in full upfront). Covers fields, league, tournaments, Veo video, equipment, referees, insurance & operations. Scholarships available — email president@reddingsoccer.com.
