Games are on Saturdays, and sometimes Sunday in the fall and the spring. Teams practice twice weekly during the seasons and during the winter as pre-season training (although we move it indoors). Our teams employ paid coaches, who have vast soccer experience and train our players in skills and game play. Our teams also enter at least one tournament each season, which are a highlight for our children and their parents.

All players should wear soccer attire at practice. Players should not wear jeans or Khakis on the field. All players should wear blue or black shorts, the red Gjoa/Saba T-shirt, and red or black socks (or their game shirts/shorts). This is the attire we are telling all our Gjoa teams to wear. Part of creating a unified, professional training environment is for the boys to look the same.
