Hopkinton Youth Soccer (HYS) has programs for players of all abilities. There are four separate programs. These programs are organized for the children based on their grade enrollment and/or age.  Click on program name in left hand column for more information.

 

The Four Programs are:

We have 2 seasons:

Fall (early-September until mid-November)

Spring (early April until mid-June)

 

 

Uniforms – Players in Kick Start thru 3rd grade will be given a new uniform-tshirt by their coach each season. There is no longer a need for those players to purchase a uniform.

 

All Travel players (except HS Coed) must wear HYS uniforms

 

 

 

Equipment - All players must wear shin guards and either soccer cleats or sneakers.  All players must bring their own ball to practice.  Micro players are given a ball in their first season.  Recommended ball sizes are:
