Our Spring 2021 instructional season begins at the start of May and runs through the end of June. Registration is open to children with all levels of experience. Apart from a necessary focus on safety, the primary goal of the Spring 2021 season is FUN, as well as providing an opportunity for kids to get re-introduced to the soccer field, physical activity and their friends.

The Spring 2021 season includes the following divisions: 6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U, and 16U/19U divisions. All divisions will be divided into boys and girls teams, if possible. The 6U through 10U divisions will play games exclusively in HMB against HMB teams; 12U and older divisions could play "intra-squad" scrimmages, against other HMB teams or against teams from cities in other San Mateo or Santa Clara regions (if opponents with appropriate COVID protocols are available). There will be no uniforms and/or uniforms may be very basic for this shortened season. We may combine certain divisions if needed (for example, 14U and 15U combined and 16U/19U combined if we have a small number of older players).

COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS: Please see this link for further information and details on the approved AYSO Region 1099 COVID safety protocol. Of particular note: 1) All players, volunteers and spectators will be required to wear masks at all times while at the field, even during heavy exertion as tolerated. 2) Please do not come to practice or games if you experience COVID-symptoms. 3) All players (and volunteers) will be subject to regular health screenings prior to participating in any HMB AYSO activity. 4) As part of our phased Return to Play approach, for the first week of practice, all participants will maintain social distance throughout the full practice; after the first week, social distancing will still be maintained, except where not possible due to the nature of normal soccer competition. 5) If any participant or volunteer test positive for COVID-19, they must immediately inform our Safety Director and all AYSO activities for the team will stop for a minimum of 14 days from last exposure to the individual testing positive
