Gameday Guide: Fall 2026 Rec Season

Know Before You Go to Adams!

Trophy Day! - Saturday September 26

What a season it has been!

It is crazy to think this Saturday is Trophy Day. All of us on the board cannot recall a season that felt so fast. Mother Nature certainly helped shorten the total weekedns of our season, but thankfully we've rescheduled all rained out games so everyone will have played their full season when all is said and done. It's a true testament to our board for finding solutions, remaking schedules, finding referees, and volunteering their time to field marshal and be at Adams to run a successful season. And we certainly need to thank all of our club families and players for hanging on while our fields dried and became safe to play on again.

At the end of your game on Saturday, teams will all meet under our shelter to receive their trophy. A board member will say a few words to being, and then we'll ask the coaches to come up and hand out awards to their players. It's a great way to celebrate the hard work, effort, and commitment each player gave this season with the recognition they deserve. And stick around for some ice cream and a jump in a bounce house! Heartland Homemade Ice Cream will have their truck out at Adams one final time. And we'll have a bounce house for the little ones to jump around in too.

The Rec Tournament brackets are here! The tournament bracket has officially been announced, so be sure to check it out and see where your team will play. See the U10-U14 brackets here. As we head into tournament play, the energy and intensity will naturally pick up — and that’s part of the fun! We ask everyone to continue supporting our players, coaches, referees, and fellow families with the same positive spirit we’ve emphasized all season. Please remember to follow the club’s Parents and Spectators Code of Conduct and help make the tournament a great experience for every player.

We need more parent volunteers to join our board! Joining now is a great opportunity to learn how the club operates, work alongside our current board members, and get familiar with the ropes before elections and leadership positions begin next year. Right now, our existing board members are wearing multiple hats to keep everything moving, and adding more helping hands would make a tremendous difference. If you’ve ever thought about getting more involved with Circle City FC, this is a great time to raise your hand and be part of what comes next. If interested, please reply to the newsletter email and we'll be happy to answer any questions.

bring your cans saturday!

It's time to start collecting for our semi-annual canned food drive benefitting Servant's Heart of Indy. Every season on trophy day, we ask club families to bring in canned food items. The team that collects the most canned food earns a FREE pizza party courtesy of Chicago's Pizza on Arlington Ave.

Servant's Heart of Indy will have a table near the ref shed on trophy day to collect donations. Make sure all cans are not expired. Those will not count towards your team total and they will not be accepted. You can learn more about Servant's Heart of Indy and their mission by visiting their website. We hope to have a big contribution for them on trophy day!

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 3 - U4
Fields 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!

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.

give back to our club and volunteer

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 drive our golf carts and give rides to those needing assistance to the fields.

If you would like to help us in any way possible, we'd love to hear from you! Fill out a quick volunteer request form 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.

We need more referees!

As our season kicks off, we are in need of more referees for our rec games. And yes, we pay our referees! To referee rec soccer games at CCFC, you must be 14-years-old or older. But adults can referee too!

The process to becoming a referee is simple and quick. Create a referee profile with us, and then you'll be connected with our referee assignor Brandi Young. You can learn more about becoming a referee with us by clicking the link below.

Form 11 Soccer Working for ccfc Rec Players

Shoutout to Form 11 Soccer, our official player development training partner, for continuing to support our club. We've heard many stories of our rec and travel players taking advantage of their Monday and Friday training sessions here on this side of town.

If you'd like to learn more about Form 11 and their training programs, visit their website here. And remember to take 10% off your training sessions when you mention you play at CCFC!
