Gameday Guide: Fall 2026 Rec Season

Know Before You Go to Adams!

First team practices saturday, August 8

Welcome to another season of ccfc rec soccer!

Hello families! For those of you that are new to our club, and those that are returning for another exciting season with us, welcome to Circle City FC! We will use our Gameday Guide as our weekly newsletter of news, notes, and information you need for coming out to our facility behind Adams Elementary School this fall rec season.

This Saturday is the first official practices for all rec teams, excluding Little Stars. IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD FROM YOUR CHILD'S COACH, PLEASE EMAIL US: info@circlecityfc.com

Please check the rec schedules that are found on our website here so you know what time your practice is and which field you are on. Come prepared with the correct size ball, soccer appropriate cleats, shin guards, a water bottle, and a great attitude! Coaches will have your child's uniform ready to pass out at your practice.

We also know there are a lot of questions on what to expect heading into the season. We've listed below what we call our Quick Kicks, which are good need-to-know bits of information that make each trip to our rec fields a success. We encourage everyone to review and read this information before the season and reference it as the season goes along.

Please bookmark this page as we will update it before each rec gameday with the latest new and information to have you ready for a fantastic day at our fields!

New Field Map This season

The field map is going to look a little different this fall. We've rotated the fields around at Adams from years past. This was done in an effort to help goalie boxes recover and give patches a chance to fully grow in from overseeding and field repair efforts the board and volunteers performed over the summer. Little Stars will remain along the gravel road close to the parking lot.

Field numbers are exactly the same:

Field 5 - U4
Field 4 & 6 - U6
Field 7 & 8 - U8
Field 9 & 10 - U10
Field 11 - U12
Field 12 - U14-U19

Know in advance where you are heading for practice Saturday and for games this fall!

Canned Food Drive is tomorrow

Let's fight hunger in our community!

On Trophy Day of every season, we partner with Servant's Heart of Indy to host a canned food drive. Next Saturday, we will be counting donated cans by teams. The team that donates the most cans next Saturday will receive a $100 gift card for a team pizza party thanks to Chicago's Pizza on Arlington Ave. For any family that donates 15 cans or more they'll receive a free order of breadsticks (while supplies last).

Start collecting canned goods, and make sure they have not expired! Servant's Heart will not accept those and they will not count towards team totals.

game day parking rules

We truly appreciate everyone following the parking designations last weekend! With over 800 kids playing rec soccer this fall season, parking at Adams Elementary is going to be a challenge to fit all families throughout the day. As a reminder, please follow the recommended parking assignments below.

The green area is for families in Little Stars, U4, U6, U8 & U10. The orange area behind the school to the right when you pull is will be for our U12-U19 families. We will continue to have designated handicap parking near the entrance. Yard signs will be placed in the Adams lot as you enter to remind you where to park.

This is all in an effort to make sure all families can attend the games they are there to see. We know this is a change, and we understand this may cause some frustrations. Ultimately, this is what we believe is needed to keep the traffic flow smooth throughout the day.

Please do not park in the neighborhood south of Adams and walk between houses to get to our fields. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation this season.

Callout for gameday volunteers!

As a completely volunteer-run organization, we count on the support of our club families to help step up and make our gamedays a success. We are always looking for folks to either drive our golf carts and give rides to those needing assistance to the fields, or helping out in our concession stand, or providing support on Picture Day or Trophy Day. There are numerous ways to support CCFC!

If you would like to help us in any way possible, we'd love to hear from you! Drop us an email, info@circlecityfc.com and we'll connect you with our volunteer coordinator to find a spot that fits your strengths and time commitment. Even an hour of time on a gameday goes a long way to support our board, the families we serve, and our club.

Travel tryouts announced!

The CCFC travel soccer programs are designed for young athletes who are ready to take their game beyond recreational play. We provide a structured, competitive environment where players are challenged to grow in skill, confidence, and teamwork.

Our programs focus on age-appropriate technical training, tactical understanding, and a passion for the game that lasts a lifetime.

Registration is open for tryouts and it's FREE. You must sign up to tryout. Day of walk-ups will need to register in person before heading to the fields. We encourage everyone interested to come tryout and see for yourself. REGISTER HERE!

We're also looking for coaches to join our travel program. If you have passion, purpose, and a love for the game, we want to hear from you! If you have questions, email our travel director ben.beatty@circlecityfc.com!
