9U to 19U Recreational Soccer - Wanderers 
These teams play a 7v7 small sided format in a league that is provided by the San Antonio Recreational Alliance (SARA).  Home games are played at Schertz Soccer Complex (SSC), but away games will be played around San Antonio. 
 
Please note, the number of player registrations will determine the combination of age groups and genders. If necessary, coed teams will be formed.

Birth Year and Season Matrix

Teams are formed based on the birth year of players.

When determining the age group for a seasonal year (2023-2024 for Fall season), the year the season ends is subtracted from the birth year to determine the age division.

For example:  2024- 2013 = 11U.

The “U” stands for “under”, which means players in each age group are that age or younger.

The ’08, ’09 etc. references the year the player was born. Players are eligible to play up to older age groups, but may not play down an age group.

Wanderers soccer is recreational program for players 9U to 18.  It is for players who may not be able to commit to our select Fire program, but want to learn and enjoy the game of soccer.
The program has 2 seasons per year - Fall (September to November) and Spring ( March to May) and play games in the SARA (San Antonio Recreational Alliance) city wide league. 

How long does the season last?

Fall:  The season typically starts in mid-September and runs for 8 -10 weeks. Make-up games for rain outs may extend the season.

Spring - The season typically begins after Spring Break in March.

When will I be contacted by a coach regarding practices?
